Ingredients
Directions
- Position bowls, cups, cookie cutters, and decorations on your serving tray first. This gives you a framework to work around.
- Place the three round white cheeses (Brie, mozzarella, and goat) in the center of the tray; these will become the witch faces.
- Decorate each cheese to match a Sanderson sister: for Sarah, use popcorn for hair and pomegranate seeds or raspberries for her dress; for Winnie, a cheeseball for hair and sliced kiwi and green apple for her dress; for Mary, blackberries or blueberries for hair and candy corn for her dress.
- Create witch eyes using a black edible marker, peppercorns, or sliced olives. For the mouths, cut small pieces of strawberry into shape.
- If you have Halloween-shaped cookie cutters, fill them with small snacks such as nuts, cubed cheese, or fruit.
- Use assorted crackers, sliced meats (summer sausage, prosciutto, salami), and Halloween candies (marshmallow ghosts, chocolate pumpkins, gummy worms) to fill any empty spaces.
- Attach candy eyeballs to items like sliced sausage to transform them into monster or snake shapes.
- Finally, place letter-shaped cookies to spell "HOCUS POCUS" and arrange them in the center of the tray.
- Accompany the board with small spoons and serving knives as needed, then dig into your spooky creation!
