Don't let sugar scare your guests away from your Halloween party. Make this creepy prosciutto face as a healthier alternative to the usual sugar-laden Halloween treats.
Choose what you'll use as the face-shaped based under the ham. You can use a store-bought mask or make the basic shape out of wads of paper or a cheese ball.
Cover mask or face shape with plastic wrap or foil and place it on a platter.
Cover the entire face base with slices of prosciutto. Use enough slices to completely cover all of the showing foil. You can keep layering it on if you want to use more ham.
Form the eyeballs by scooping some cream cheese into each eye socket. If using mozzarella cheese balls, scoop a small amount out of the cheese to make room for the blueberry pupils.You can also use lychees or gummy eyeballs instead!
Push olives or blueberries into the cream cheese to form the pupils.
Garnish the ham face by surrounding it with crackers, veggies, or sliced meats and cheeses.
You can now serve your ham platter and creep out your guests!
Using thinner strips of ham gives a more realistic (and creepier) effect.Try wrapping strips of ham around the edges of the eyeballs to help hold them in place and give a more finished look to the face.
