  • Small check mark in a circle icon 200g ready-grated mozzarella cheese
  • Small check mark in a circle icon Assorted sliced olives and chiles, as desired
Equipment required
  • Pizza Cutter
  • Baking Paper

  • Cooling Rack
  • Pastry Brush

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 200°C (180°C for fan assisted ovens)/Gas Mark 6. Line 2 large baking sheets with baking paper.
  2. On cutting board, unroll dough; separate into 6triangles.Cut each triangle into 3 smaller triangles making 24 triangles in total. Shape each as needed to look like ghost shape. Arrange triangles on baking sheets, folding narrow point under about 1/ 2 inch, to form head of ghost.
  3. Bake about 5-7 minutes or until slightly puffed and just beginning to brown. Sprinkle each ghost with about 1 tablespoon cheese. Bake 2-3 minutes longer or until cheese is melted. Top with sliced olives and chillies to form eyes and mouths.

Tips

  • Cook 1 clove garlic, finely chopped, in 1 tablespoon butter, and brush over dough before topping with cheese.
  • Be creative and use what you have on hand to add mouths and eyes to the ghosts – nuts, pickles or cut-up tomato will all work.
