Prep Time 10 mins

Servings 8

Ingredients

  

1x2x3x

• 1 block 250g of goat cheese ricotta, cream cheese, or butter works as well
• ⅓ cup cherry jam any red jam works
• red food colouring start with 20 drops until it’s a nice dark red
• spiders for presentation mine are from the dollar store
• candy eyes for presentation mine are from the bulk barn
• Halloween butter knives or any, mine are from Winners

Instructions

 

• Take the goat cheese and smear it onto a wooden board or plate. Make sure to make it look presentable and layer in swirls on the serving board.
• In a separate bowl mix the cherry jam with the food colouring. Take a spoon and add dollops onto the board.
• Add spiders and candy eyes for presentation. Last but not least, stick a few butter knives into the board. Mine are spooky but you can use any. Enjoy.

Notes

You can make this with any toppings you personally love like other preserves or jam.

Feel free to use any creamy cheese like Boursin and you can also make this board totally vegan by using a plant-based cheese.

The cheese should be soft so that it’s easy to spread and you can use any board you have at home. This can even be made on a plate as well. I used a small wooden board, but you can use any you have on hand. Mine is 9 inches long by 7 inches wide.

You can also place a small piece of parchment paper on the board if you don’t feel like smearing the cheese on directly.

The spiders are for presentation only. The candy eyes are edible but can be very hard on the teeth so please be careful.

I purchased the spooky Halloween knives from Winners a few years back, but you can look online for Halloween butter knives if you wish.
