Instructions

For the Mummy Hot Dogs:

  • Preheat oven to 375℉.
  • Unwrap the hot dogs from the package and dry them off with a paper towel.
  • Make sure the crescent roll sheet is cut into thin strips using a pizza cutter or sharp knife.
  • Take each hot dog and wrap 1½-2 stripes of crescent roll dough erratically, like mummy dressings.
  • Place the mummy hot dogs on a baking sheet and bake for 13-15 minutes, or until the dough is golden brown and cooked all the way through. Serve with ketchup and mustard.

For the Vampire Bat Oreos:

  • Separate an oreo and scrape off the cream.
  • Carefully cut each side in half.
  • Separate another oreo and take two halves of a cut oreo and place them into the oreo cream, so they resemble wings. Replace the top oreo cookie.
  • Using white cookie frosting, pipe a smile and two dots for eyes. On the eye dots, place candy eyeballs.
  • Using red cookie frosting, add two bloody fangs onto the smile of the bat.
  • Repeat steps 1-5 with as many oreos as you'd like.

For the Mummy Cookies:

  • Taking a shortbread cookie, drizzle white cookie frosting over the cookie repeatedly to look like mummy dressings.
  • Add two candy eyeballs.
  • Before the frosting sets, sprinkle the cookie with white sanding sugar.
  • Repeat with as many cookies as you’d like. Allow the cookies to set before serving.

For the Monster Teeth Apples:

  • Cut a granny smith apple into slices.
  • Take a slice and spread about 1 tablespoon of peanut butter onto it.
  • Add four mini marshmallows on top of the peanut butter then top with another apple slice. This will look like a mouth.
  • Add bloody drips with red cookie frosting onto the marshmallow teeth.
  • Repeat with remainingapple slices.

For the Pumpkin Brie:

  • Using a 3 inch pumpkin cookie cutter, press the cutter about half-way down into a brie wheel.
  • Use a knife to remove the inner pumpkin-shaped portion of the brie.
  • Fill the hollow pumpkin shape with peach or apricot jam.

For the Frankenstein Monster PB&Js:

  • Take a piece of wheat bread and spread some peanut butter and jelly just into the center of the bread.
  • Top with another piece of bread.
  • Press the inner portion of the uncrustable cutter down onto the bread then add the outer portion and press down firmly. Remove the excess crust.
  • Using black cookie frosting, pipe a jacked chevron shape about ⅔ up across the sandwich. Fill in that top portion with frosting.
  • Pipe a smile line and two dots where the eyes will be.
  • Add two candy eyes.
  • Repeat steps 1-6 with as many sandwiches as you’d like.

Board Construction:

  • In the center of your board, place your pumpkin brie wheel.
  • In the upper right side of the board, add your mummy hot dogs and two little ramekins/cups with ketchup and mustard.
  • Fold each salami piece in half, then into an accordion shape. Place a toothpick through the bottom half of the salmi accordion. Repeat with the rest of the salami package. **I was able to fit 4 salami slices on one toothpick.
  • Arrange the salami into a faint S shape on the top half of the board.
  • Next to the salami, add a ramekin of salted pistachios.
  • On the bottom right of the board, add your Frankenstein monster PB&J sandwiches.
  • In the space between the salami and the hot dogs, add your mummy cookies.
  • Below the pistachios, add your monster apple teeth.
  • Right below the pumpkin brie, arrange your celery sticks and below that, the pretzel rods.
  • To the left of the pretzel rods, carefully arrange your oreo bats.
  • Finally, fill in the remaining space with mini donuts and assorted crackers.
  • Serve and enjoy!
