How to Make It

Draw little jack-o’-lantern faces on the cheddar cubes with the black decorating icing and let them set. Fan the salami across one side of a large board and cluster the cheese cubes in the center. Fill in the gaps with black olives, pretzel sticks, dried apricots and candy corn, tuck crackers around the edges, and serve it right away.

Tips for the Best Spooky Snack Board

Let the faces set. Give the icing 5 minutes before arranging.
Start with the salami. Fan it across one side of the board first.
Cheese in the center. Cluster the cubes so the faces show.
Fill every gap. A full board looks the most fun.
Serve right away. It’s best fresh.
