Nightmare Before Christmas Party

Glorious mornings are ahead if you are an Autumn person like me! 🍂🍁 I love throwing parties and snagging any chance to create something fun and unique, while also delicious!

Last fall, I threw a Harry Potter baby shower and my sorting hat turned out to look like Oogie-Boogie from Nightmare Before Christmas, so we just rolled with it! It’s easy to shape and easy to make: ⬇️

Ingredients:

1-2 8oz box Cream Cheese. (Room temp)

1 cup shredded Cheddar Cheese

1/3c cooked bacon, chopped

1 Green Onion (For Chives)

1 tsp Garlic Powder

1/2 tsp Black Pepper

Nuts, Optional

Ritz Crackers

Poppyseeds to cover

Instructions:

Mix all ingredients together in small mixing bowl. Shape into a cone and set onto a tray covered with parchment paper, and place in freezer for 1-2 hours, until mildly frozen. Remove from freezer and with your thumb, push slightly to make eye sockets. Then, do the same with the grin, do not over grin Oogie-Boogie. Sculpt the top of the cone shape like a witches hat. Cover generously with poppyseeds and place back in the freezer for 1 hour or until 30 minutes before serving. Remove cheese head from parchment, place on a medium to large charger or serving dish and arrange crackers around Oogi-Boogie.

Great for any time entertaining, but especially for the pumpkin holidays! 👻
