    If there is one thing I love to make for a party, it would be charcuterie boards. You can easily whip one up just before a party in any kind of theme and array of foods, fruits and veggies.

    I’ve made a fair share of Halloween charcuterie boards from a spooky Halloween board to a Halloween candy board. This Sanderson sisters board is probably my favorite of all because it Hocus Pocus is my favorite Halloween movie of all time.

    Of course you can make this using whatever foods you have on hand and your guests will totally be impressed.
