Step-by-Step Instructions

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
On a floured surface, roll out your pizza dough to about ¼ inch thick.
Using a 4-5 inch cookie cutter, cut out 6-8 rounds of dough.
Spread a generous layer of pizza sauce over each dough circle, leaving a 1/4-inch border.
Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce layer.
Slice black olives in half lengthwise for spider bodies and into thin strips for legs.
Arrange olive halves on cheese as spider bodies and add legs.
Bake for 8-10 minutes until cheese is bubbling and lightly golden.
Let the pizza cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
