Our own summary of the original — the full post and photos live at thecreativebite.com.
This Halloween charcuterie board combines gourmet cheeses, cured meats, fruits, and Halloween-themed decorations like plastic spiders and candy eyeballs. Start by arranging pumpkins and spreads, then build layers of cheese, crackers, and meats in a coffin-shaped board. Finish with creepy touches and serve with toothpicks and napkins.
Ingredients
Directions
- Place the mini pumpkins, any bowls, and jars of spreads at intervals across your serving board.
- Put the grapes in the middle of the board, then distribute the other fruit in small clusters around the board.
- Cut a small piece off each back corner of the board to form a coffin shape. Slice the hard cheeses and position all cheese pieces in the empty spaces. Spoon a dollop of red jam onto the Brie and push the cheese knife through the jam.
- Distribute the crackers and bread slices across the board, aiming for curved lines like an S or C shape.
- Fill remaining open areas with the cured meats and leftover ingredients, keeping similar items grouped together to avoid a messy look.
- Add Halloween decorations like plastic spiders and candy eyeballs.
- Cover and refrigerate the board until serving time. Provide toothpicks and napkins for guests.
