Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Spooky Cheese Ball Face.
Step 1
Begin by lightly spraying a plastic mask with cooking spray, then line it with plastic wrap, ensuring a snug fit around the nose and eye areas.
Step 2
Set aside two or three slices of prosciutto for later use.
Step 3
Tear the remaining prosciutto into strips and layer them inside the mask, starting around the eyes and working outward to sculpt the 'muscle tissue' of the cheeks, chin, and forehead.
Step 4
For the eyes, place whole green olives in the eye holes, pimento side down, and set the mask aside.
Step 5
In a mixing bowl, blend softened cream cheese, Cheddar, and Havarti cheeses together.
Step 6
Stir in chopped green olives and roasted red peppers until the mixture is well combined, using either an electric mixer or your hands for a smooth consistency.
Step 7
Take a spoonful of this creamy mixture and mold it around each olive to create the eyes.
Step 8
Next, fill the mask with the remaining cheese mixture, pressing it down gently to fill every crevice without disturbing the prosciutto.
Step 9
Once filled, refrigerate the mask for at least 30 minutes to allow it to set.
Step 10
When ready to serve, carefully invert the mask onto a platter and gently peel away the mask and plastic wrap.
Step 11
If any cheese peeks out around the edges, simply cover it with the reserved prosciutto slices for a polished presentation.
Step 12
Enjoy this delightful creation thatβs sure to impress your guests!.
