π»π©» This Skull Cheese Ball is the creepiest but easiest appetizer for Halloween! All you need are two ingredients and a skull baking pan! ππ»

Perfect Presentation Platters
For this recipe, I’d recommend this skull baking pan and coffin-shaped platter!
Halloween Serving Platters:Β For some other fun Halloween serving boards, you may love this cuteΒ Jack-Oβ-Lantern platterΒ or thisΒ Stoneware Ghost PlatterΒ (both from Pottery Barn), as well as thisΒ Marble Ghost Cheese BoardΒ from World Market.
Individual Halloween Plates: Target has the cutest stoneware appetizer plates for just $3 each! This Jack-Oβ-Lantern plate would be perfect for this dish, and you may also love this ghost plate. They would also be cute to pair together!

Wooden Serving Boards: I use this rectangular tray regularly, which is at a great price! Antique Farmhouse also has this beautiful set of three! If youβd prefer a round tray, Iβd recommend this round wooden Target tray,
Kitchen Links: I get asked all the time about the products in the background of my kitchen. Much of it is from MacKenzie-Childs, which I have slowly grown a collection of over the years! My favorites are this checkered chopping board, my black and white checkered teapot, and the gray and white checkered utensil holder. I also have this enamel canister that you can find in small, medium, or large.
TheΒ Haunted House Candy JarΒ is from Pottery Barn, but I just found a similar option at Joanne Fabrics for a steal!
Can I Prep This Skull Cheese Ball Ahead of Time?
Yes! It needs to chill for at least two hours, and you can definitely make the day ahead. Just carefully place it in a Ziploc bag or a Tupperware container and refrigerate.

Storing Leftovers
Place any leftovers in a Ziploc Bag or Tupperware container and refrigerate. This Skull Cheeseball should stay fresh for about 3 days as a tasty snack!
