Recipe Notes:
- Add funny Halloween drawings to the cheese packet to give a Halloween twist to a regular slice of cheese.
- If using store-bought chocolate covered pretzels, place them on a microwave-safe plate and heat for 5 seconds. Just enough to gently melt the chocolate to “glue” the eyes on as well.
- slice caramel apples just before serving to prevent browning. You can lightly brush the apple slices with lime or lemon juice to prevent browning as well.
- Looking for decorated icing sugar cookies with a fun theme? Now you can find them in local stores, or you can order a small quantity from a small business in your local area.
