Get ready to wow your guests with a spooky and delicious “Scream” face charcuterie board! It’s the perfect Halloween centerpiece that’s both eerie and elegant, featuring Brie cheese as the ghostly face and a fun assortment of savory and sweet snacks.

Ingredients:

• 1 round wheel of Brie cheese
• Fresh blackberries (for the “robe”)
• Pepperoni slices
• Fresh raspberries
• Pretzels (small or mini)
• A few dark chocolate chips (optional, for extra detail)

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Brie: Start with a round Brie wheel as the centerpiece. This will be your ghostly “Scream” face. Using a knife, gently carve out two large, elongated eye shapes and a long oval mouth shape to mimic the iconic scream.
2. Add the Face Details: Fill the eye and mouth hollows with dark-colored blackberries or use dark chocolate chips for the extra spooky touch. The contrast against the white Brie will create that chilling expression.
3. Create the Robe: Surround the Brie face with blackberries, forming a cloak-like shape to replicate the hooded robe. Place them generously around the Brie for a dramatic, shadowy effect.
4. Layer in the Treats: For some variety and color, scatter pepperoni slices and fresh raspberries around the board. The pepperoni adds a savory touch, while the raspberries bring sweetness and a pop of color.
5. Final Touch with Pretzels: Fill in any gaps on the board with pretzels. They add a nice crunch and balance out the softer textures of the cheese and berries.

Serve your spooky scream charcuterie board and watch it disappear as fast as a scream!
