CHEESE MUMMY: THE BEST HALLOWEEN POTLUCK RECIPE

Steps:

• Use a stand mixer to beat one cup of cream cheese and sour cream until fluffy.
• Add the swiss and cheddar cheeses, onion, roasted pepper, bacon, parsley, and nuts. Beat on medium speed until well mixed.
• Refrigerate the cheese mixture until firm (about 1 hour).
• Shape cheese ball into a body on a pan or cookie sheet.
• Mix the second cup of cream cheese and milk. Spoon into a pastry bag with a flat or basket weave tip and pipe bandages onto the mummy body.
• (OPTIONAL) If you would like to do the "dirty bandages", pull out a tablespoon of cream cheese "frosting" and dye it a light gray. Smear that in a line up your pastry bag before adding in the white cream cheese. Then pipe bandages onto your mummy.
• Use peppercorns and red pepper to make eyes and a mouth.
• Serve with crackers and pretzel sticks for scooping, or bread to spread it on. Baby carrots are great too!

YUMMY MUMMY CHEESE SPREAD (MUMMY SHAPE) HALLOWEEN

Steps:

• Cut the cheese logs into pieces for the mummy's head (make it a square shape) arms (smaller and thinner) and legs (longer than the arms).
• Arrange on the platter.
• Beat cream cheese ( softened at room temperature) and milk until smooth.
• Use a pastry or plastic bag and cut a small slit for piping.
• use a basket weave tip #47 and pipe mixture over the entire mummy ( I use a cookie decorating tool. It works almost like a caulking gun. I squeeze the trigger and the mixture pipes out).
• Leave one or two longer like the mummy is coming undone.
• Add two whole peppercorns for the eyes.
• Add the pimento strip for the mouth.
• Chill until ready to serve.
• Serve with crackers.
