Halloween Cheese Ball Hand Appetizer is easier than it looks. I will let you know. It’s even more gross in person! Made with simple sticks of string cheese, deli meats and a herby cream cheese mixture. It definitely makes an impact at any Halloween party you throw!
With all of the Halloween recipes I have, you’d never guess that it’s not my favorite holiday! It’s just such a blast to play around with in the kitchen. You might be familiar with my famous Feet Loaf recipe. It’s a tradition to make the week before trick or treating for hundreds of families. If you are looking for more spooky food then you must also make these Eyeball Appetizers. Only 3 ingredients and perfect to add to any charcuterie board. If you are looking for a little sweet treat then you must make my Ghost Hand Pies.

Halloween Recipes
I’ve seen different versions of this type of appetizer, but I knew I had to make my own! I served this for a Witches Bunco group a few years back and this was one of the first things that was eaten! I think the secret is that everyone loved the cheese ball portion that actually is my Cheddar Ranch Cheeseball recipe!
