Ingredients:

  • 8 oz Sharp Cheddar
  • 8 oz Brie
  • 4 oz Goat Cheese
  • 4 oz Pepper Jack
  • 6 oz Hard Salami
  • 6 oz Prosciutto
  • 4 oz Pepperoni
  • 2 cups Assorted Crackers
  • 1 cup Green Grapes
  • 1 cup Blackberries
  • 1/2 cup Dried Apricots
  • 1/2 cup Roasted Almonds
  • 1 cup Castelvetrano Olives
  • 2 tbsp Black Sesame Seeds
  • 4 oz Fig Jam

Instructions:

  1. Place ramekins containing fig jam and Castelvetrano olives on the board slightly off-center to create anchors.
  2. Position the largest cheese blocks, the Brie and Sharp Cheddar, in opposite quadrants of the board to establish the structural skeleton.
  3. Fill the remaining gaps with sliced Pepper Jack, the goat cheese log (garnished with black sesame seeds), and the cured meats (salami, prosciutto, and pepperoni).
  4. Arrange the crackers, grapes, blackberries, dried apricots, and roasted almonds in the smaller spaces to complete the board.
  5. Add fresh rosemary sprigs for a forest aesthetic and optional spooky decorations like mozzarella pearl 'eyeballs'.
