Halloween Coffin Sandwiches
Coffin sandwiches are an easy Halloween food made with simple ingredients. Ready in 15 minutes, they are the perfect appetizer for your spooky party!
Ingredients
- ⅓ cup mayonnaise (see note 1)
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard (see note 2)
- 12 sandwich bread (thin slices, see note 3)
- 12 ham (thin slices or 6 thick, see note 4)
- 7 sliced cheese (see note 5)
Instructions
- In a small bowl, combine mayo and mustard. Spread a thin layer over each slice of bread.
- When done, top 6 slices with ham (see note 3), cheese and cover with the remaining bread slices. Trim off the crust and cut each sandwich in half.
- Cut each rectangle into a coffin shape. Out of the last cheese slice, cut thin strips and arrange them on top of each “coffin” in a cross shape.
- Keep in the fridge covered before serving.
Notes
- This quantity of mayo sauce should be plenty for 12-16 pieces.
- Use any mustard you have on hand.
- Crustless bread is a great option – it will save you some time when prepping!
- Any deli ham will work here. Or, it can be substituted with salami. Use either 1 thick or 2 thin slices per sandwich.
- Use any sliced cheese you like – Gouda, Edam, Mozzarella, Havarti, Goat cheese,...
