Candy Corn Layered Cheese Board
Equipment
- Large serving board
- Cheese knife
Ingredients
- 4 ounces white cheddar, sliced
- 4 ounces orange cheddar, sliced
- 4 ounces yellow havarti, sliced
- 1 cup white seedless grapes
- 1/2 cup dried apricots
- 1 cup yellow bell pepper strips
- 20 assorted crackers
- 1/2 cup roasted almonds
- Small handful candy corn for garnish
Instructions
- Set a rectangular or oval board on the counter and place the white cheddar slices in a wide row along the bottom edge.
- Lay the orange cheddar slices directly above the white row to form the middle band.
- Position the yellow havarti slices at the top to finish the three-layer candy corn effect.
- Tuck the white grapes into the spaces around the white cheddar layer.
- Add the dried apricots next to the orange cheddar layer and the yellow bell pepper strips beside the yellow havarti.
- Scatter the crackers and almonds around the outer edges of the board.
- Place a few pieces of candy corn on top as a simple garnish.
Notes
Slice the cheeses ahead of time and keep them covered in the fridge so the board comes together quickly right before guests arrive. If the yellow bell pepper feels too firm, swap in thin slices of yellow apple instead. Keep the candy corn only as garnish so it does not get mixed into the cheese and soften.
