Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and prepare a pizza baking sheet or stone.
Roll out the pre-made pizza dough into a circular shape and place it on the prepared baking sheet or stone.
Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the surface of the dough, leaving a small border for the crust.
Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce to cover it completely.
Arrange the sliced pepperoni in a circular shape near the top half of the pizza to form Elmo’s red face.
Cut the string cheese into two short cylindrical pieces and place them above the pepperoni to create the whites of Elmo’s eyes.
Slice the black olives into small rounds and place one on each string cheese piece for Elmo’s pupils.
Use a small piece of red bell pepper to form Elmo’s nose. Place it in the center, just under the eyes.
Cut additional black olive slices and arrange them in a curved line below the pepperoni to create Elmo’s smiling mouth.
Place the pizza in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing.
Serve warm and watch the kids enjoy their Elmo-inspired masterpiece!
