Preheat your oven to 375°F. Lightly grease a 4-cavity skull-shaped baking mold with cooking spray to prevent sticking.

Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into 4 rectangles. If your dough has perforations, press the seams firmly together to create solid rectangles. (If using pizza dough, divide into 4 equal portions and roll each into an oval shape large enough to line a skull cavity.)

Carefully press one dough rectangle into each skull cavity, allowing the excess dough to hang over the edges of the mold. This will form the bottom layer of your pizza skull.

Spoon about 2 tablespoons of shredded mozzarella cheese into the bottom of each dough-lined skull cavity.

Add about 1 tablespoon of pizza sauce over the cheese in each cavity.

Arrange 10-12 mini pepperoni slices on top of the sauce in each skull cavity.

Place another piece of dough (either a separate crescent roll rectangle or a rolled pizza dough oval) over the filling in each skull. Carefully pinch and seal the edges of the top dough piece to the bottom dough piece, trimming any large excess dough to ensure the filling is fully enclosed.

Place the filled skull mold on a baking sheet and bake for 15-18 minutes, or until the dough is golden brown and puffed. The internal temperature of the dough should reach 200-205°F.

While the pizza skulls are baking, prepare the garlic butter dipping sauce. In a small microwave-safe bowl or saucepan, melt the unsalted butter.

Stir the minced garlic, chopped fresh parsley, dried oregano, and red pepper flakes (if using) into the melted butter. Heat gently for 1-2 minutes to infuse the flavors, being careful not to brown the garlic.

Once baked, carefully remove the pizza skulls from the mold and transfer them to a serving platter.

Serve the hot pizza skulls immediately with the warm garlic butter dipping sauce on the side.
