Severed Arm Prosciutto and Swiss Sandwich
I remember years ago when our children were young we would have Halloween parties and our children would invite their friends. My husband was very creative making disgusting looking food for the parties, and I would laugh so hard at the creations! Here is a fabulous Halloween sandwich to make for your Halloween party this year! It tastes really good and will impress your guests with the grossness of it! Here is how to easily make it!
Ingredients Needed
14 slices of square bread (I used split top wheat)
32 slices of prosciutto
9 slices Swiss cheese
pitted black olives
soft butter or margarine
tomato sauce
dried oregano
dried basil
Supplies Needed
plastic wrap
rolling pin
string or yarn
2 cutting boards
butter knife
sharp knife
plastic spiders
Cut Plastic Wrap
Cut a large piece of plastic wrap and place it on a cutting board.
Cut Off Crusts
Cut the crusts off of the bread making each a square shape.
Flatten the Bread
On the plastic wrap, place 9 slices of the bread in a large square with the edges slightly overlapping. Flatten with the rolling pin.
Butter and Prosciutto
Butter the bread and arrange 9 slices of prosciutto on top.
Add Cheese and Roll!
Place 4 slices of Swiss cheese along the center. With the help of the plastic wrap, roll the bread until it becomes a tight log.
Make Tie
About 2 3/4 inches in from one end, tie the string. Flatten the bread roll beyond the string with the rolling pin forming the hand. Refrigerate for 1 hour.
Make the Fingers
Roll remaining 5 slices of bread to flatten. Spread on soft butter and top with cheese slices.
Finish the Fingers
Place 1 slice of prosciutto over each. Roll them up so that you have five rolls. Roll a piece of prosciutto around each, forming the fingers. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to use.
Cut the Olives
Meanwhile, cut 3 olives in half lengthwise. Slice several olives into thin strips.
Remove String
After an hour has past, remove the rolled long sandwich from the refrigerator. Cut off the string and remove the plastic wrap.
Make Thumb Hole
Make a deep cut where the thumb will go.
Add the Fingers
Push the thumb sandwich into the hole. Arrange the remaining 4 fingers along the top of the sandwich, pushing to remove any airspace.
Add Finger Nails
Place an olive half on each finger to make finger nails.
Cover With Prosciutto
Cover the whole arm with the remaining slices of prosciutto, tucking each piece under the arm.
Make Stitches
Create stitches on the the arm with cut olive slices.
Make a Gash
Make a cut in the arm by slicing 3/4 of the way through with a sharp knife. Spread open.
Make the Blood
Pour tomato sauce in a custard cup. Sprinkle with about 1/4 teaspoon oregano and basil. Stir to mix well.
Add the Blood
Drizzle tomato sauce in and around the cut. Arrange spiders around the arm.
Add the Knife
Stab the arm with a sharp knife for serving.
Ready to Eat!
Sever off a section of the arm or pull off a finger. Dip into the tasty “blood”! Ha, ha, ha!!!!!
Enjoy It!!!
