Mummy man cheese spread is from Rebecca Eremich, Barberton, Ohio My annual Halloween bash wouldn’t be the same without the now famous Mummy Man. When kids first see Mummy Man, they wonder if they can actually eat him. I assure them they can, and we hack off a foot or an arm with some crackers.

Ingredients

2 port wine cheese logs (12 ounces each)

1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese,

softened

1 tablespoon milk

2 whole peppercorns

1 pimiento strip

Method

1 Cut cheese logs into pieces for mummy’s head, body, arms and legs; arrange on a serving plate.

2 In small mixing bowl, beat cream cheese and milk. Cut a small hole in the corner of a pastry or plastic bag; insert basket weave tip #47. Pipe rows across the mummy, creating bandages.

3.Add peppercorns for eyes and pimiento strip for mouth. Chill until serving. Yield: 24 servings.
