1. Preheat oven to 500°F if using a baking sheet, or as hot as possible if using a baking stone or steel. Place stone or steel in the oven before preheating.

2. Tear string cheese into thin strips. Slice olives in half lengthwise; set aside 8 halves for spider bodies, then cut the remaining halves into thin strips for legs.

3. Stretch or roll dough into a 12- to 14-inch round and place on a baking sheet or lightly floured peel. Prick dough all over with a fork.

4. Spread sauce evenly over dough, leaving a ½-inch border.

5. Bake dough with sauce for 3 to 5 minutes until crust is lightly golden.

6. Remove from oven and quickly arrange cheese strips into a spider web pattern. Place olive halves with strip legs around the web to form spiders.

7. Return to oven and bake another 3 to 5 minutes until cheese has melted. Let cool slightly before slicing and serving.
