Halloween Charcuterie Board

Instructions

1. Cut the pre-sliced cheeses into seasonal shapes using the Halloween cookie cutters. Reserve and finely chop the scraps.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, shredded cheddar, and gouda. Chop half of the green onions and add them along with the Worcestershire sauce and 2 tablespoons of everything bagel seasoning. Mix thoroughly until well-combined. Turn out onto a large sheet of plastic wrap. Shape into a rough ball and wrap tightly in the plastic wrap. Arrange 4 rubber bands around the plastic wrap to create 8 distinct sections for the pumpkin shape. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up the pumpkin. When the pumpkin is firm, thinly slice the remaining green onion vertically into long strips. Add to a bowl of ice water to encourage curling. Remove the pumpkin cheese ball from the plastic and gently press the outside with everything bagel seasoning. Insert a honey wheat pretzel twist for the stem. Arrange sage leaves and the curliest green onion "vines" on top of the pumpkin for decoration.
3. Fill a medium-sized bowl with hot water (not boiling). Add the mozzarella balls and let sit until softened and pliable, about 10 minutes. Drain and pat dry, then gently shape into a smoother circle. Press olive halves, cut side up, into the center of each mozzarella ball to create an iris and pupil. Fold or slice prosciutto in half, lengthways, and then wrap around each "eyeball".
4. Position the pumpkin cheese ball toward one corner of the board. Place half of the mozzarella eyes in a small bowl on the opposite side of the board.  Arrange the sliced goat cheese in a curved line connecting the two. Distribute the remaining components in sections around the board, layering the cheese cutouts and remaining "eyeballs" on top for dramatic effect. Place skeleton hands and plastic spiders around the board for dramatic effect.
