If you want to wow your guests this holiday season with a spectacular appetizer, then you need to make these Christmas Charcuterie Cups. A winner in both presentation and flavor, these are individual festive charcuterie boards served in a cup.
Begin by filling your containers with smaller items like nuts and grapes.
Tuck in your crackers toward the back of the container.
Using the toothpicks, skewer a few of your ingredients such as cheeses, meats, olives, berries, etc. Use a mini gold fork to present a piece of cheese or other specialty item.
Place the toothpick-skewered items into your container. Vary heights and colors to create interest.
Fill in with extra ingredients to hold things in place.
Garnish with a sprig of fresh herb and cheese slices cut from mini Christmas cookie cutters.
Notes
*Please note that I'm somewhat generalizing with the amounts listed above. You may need a little more or a little less depending on the size of your containers. I always err on the side of having more than enough. (I'm never one to complain about having extra cheeses and meats on hand.)**You can find my sugared cranberries recipe HERE.
