Bake 12 to 15 minutes, or until edge is dry and toothpick inserted near center comes out clean. Cool in pan on wire rack. In a medium microwavable bowl, heat white chocolate chips and the cream on 70% power for 30 seconds. Stir; heat an additional 10 seconds, if necessary, until mixture is melted and smooth. Spread evenly over cooled crust. In a small microwavable bowl, heat semi sweet chocolate for 30 seconds; stir. Continue heating and stirring in 10 second intervals until chips are melted and smooth. Spoon chocolate mixture into small resealable plastic bag; cut off a tiny corner. Pipe frosting in spiral. Pull a toothpick from center to outer edge. Sprinkle the 2 tablespoons of dried cranberries and halloween sprinkles over the pizza. To make the spider, attach 8 small pieces of licorice to a gumdrop for legs and top with 2 candy eyes. Makes 16 servings. Tip: For an extra dose of chocolate, substitute the Craisins® Original Dried Cranberries for one (8-ounce) package of Ocean Spray® Craisins® Milk Chocolate-Covered Dried Cranberries.
