LOCATION

Directions

  • 1 Heat oven to 375°F. Spray large cookie sheet with cooking spray, or cover with cooking parchment paper.
  • 2 On cutting board, unroll dough; separate into 8 triangles. From center of longest side to opposite point, cut each triangle in half, making 16 triangles. Shape each as needed to look like ghost shape. Arrange triangles on cookie sheet, folding narrow point under about 1/ 2 inch, to form head of ghost.
  • 3 Bake about 7 minutes or until slightly puffed and just beginning to brown. Sprinkle each ghost with 1 tablespoon cheese; top with sliced olives to form mouth and eyes. Bake 2 to 3 minutes longer or until cheese is melted.

EXPERT TIPS

Expert 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, dill pickles or cut-up tomato will all work.

These came out great! What a compliment to all the dips and other dishes at our halloween get-together. They were one of the hits of the party - not only tasty but cute as well. Thanks Pillsbury, keep them coming!

I am a teacher, and I made these last year to serve to 6th,7th and 8th grade, as something NOT sweet. They were a huge hit! Glad to find the recipe here again this year! Happy Halloween

I was making several other recipes (mummies,witch's fingers, bones) and this was a fabulous idea for the scraps of dough that were leftover. I found it easier to use a pizza cutter than trying to shape the dough. They taste soooooo good. Think I'll incorporate this idea with leftover dough year round. Thanks Pillsbury!
