Santa Charcuterie Board

Description

Make this festive snack as a themed Santa appetizer to bring to any holiday party.

Ingredients
  

  • 12 oz Italian dry salame
  • 8 oz chorizo salame sliced
  • 13 oz brie wheel
  • 3 oz ciliegine
  • 10 oz aged white cheddar crumbled
  • 1 cherry tomato halved crosswise
  • 1 black olive quartered
  • 8 oz green grapes
  • 2 black licorice button candies
  • Rosemary sprigs for garnish

Instructions

  • Chill brie in the freezer for 15-20 minutes. Meanwhile, cut out two circles from the Italian Dry Salame to make rosy cheeks.
  • Slice off the top ¼-inch of brie, and set aside. Cut off the bottom fourth of the brie to make the bottom of Santa’s head (reserve it for another use). Place the brie in the center of a board. Cut a mustache out of the brie rind and place towards the bottom of the brie Santa. Add half the cherry tomato to make a nose and two black olive to make eyes. Add the salami cheeks.
  • Lay Chorizo Salame in shape of hat above the brie, and add the ciliegine “trim” at the bottom, and one at the tip of the hat. Shape crumbled white cheddar into a beard below the brie.
  • Fold Italian Dry Salame in half, and then in thirds resembling an “S” shape. To make his body, add five pieces to a skewer; repeat until you have 4 skewers. Place under his beard. For his arms, add seven pieces to a skewer; repeat until you have 2 skewers. Add to each side of his body, then add two slices of Italian Dry Salame for his shoulders. Add the two licorice buttons to the center of his coat.
  • Add the green grapes to the board around Santa in a wreath shape. Garnish with rosemary. Enjoy!
