A spooky and delicious appetizer made from mozzarella and prosciutto, perfect for your Halloween party.

Ingredients

Scale
  • Mozzarella cheese log
  • Prosciutto slices
  • 5 Prosciutto and mozzarella rolls
  • Crackers for serving

Instructions

  1. Lay a piece of parchment paper down on your work surface.
  2. Place one prosciutto and mozzarella roll on the parchment paper.
  3. Cut a portion off the mozzarella roll to use for the hand shape.
  4. Shape the main hand part using the cut portion and any remaining roll.
  5. Add the remaining prosciutto and mozzarella rolls to form the fingers.
  6. Push the fingers in slightly to secure them in place on the hand shape.
  7. Layer the slices of prosciutto over the entire hand shape.
  8. Trim the prosciutto where needed to achieve a realistic hand appearance.
  9. Continue layering prosciutto until the hand looks complete.
  10. Carefully transfer the finished hand to a serving platter or a coffin-shaped board.
  11. Serve immediately with crackers and a cheese knife.

Notes

Chill the mozzarella log slightly before shaping for easier handling.
Parchment paper makes transferring the hand much simpler.
Don’t be afraid to get creative with the finger placement for a spookier look.
For best results, assemble closer to serving time.
