Ingredients Needed

• Extra sharp cheddar cheese (I used Cracker Barrel)
• Whipped Cream Cheese
• Triscuit crackers or another triangle-shaped cracker
• Chicken in a Biskit crackers

How To Make Mini Pumpkin Pie Crackers

Step One: First, you will want to start by cutting your cheddar cheese into thick slices. They need to be on the thicker side in order to look like a real slice of pumpkin pie.

Step Two: Next, place a slice of cheese on the Triscuit cracker. This is going to be your template. Who would have thought that your crackers would be your blueprints for this recipe?

Step 3: Slice the cheese to form a triangle that will fit the Triscuit cracker. Don’t worry if some of the cheese (as pictured below) doesn’t quite fit your cracker. This will be hidden later on.

Step Four: This is the trickiest part! Cut approximately ⅓ of the Chicken in a Biskit cracker. I found it’s easiest to make sure to use even pressure and make a quick cut.

Step Five: Your next step is to add a few spoonfuls of whipped cream cheese into a zipper-locked sandwich bag.

Unless full, remove all the air and cut a very tiny hole in the corner of the bag. You are going to be using this as a homemade piping bag.

Step Six: It’s time to put your ‘pies’ together! Place your cheese slice on the Triscuit. Using a thin line of cream cheese, attach your larger chicken in a Biskit cracker on the back of the pie slice.

Step Seven: Again, using your cream cheese, attach the smaller piece of the Chicken in a Biskit cracker on top of the cheese where it meets the cracker.

This forms your pie’s ‘crust’ in a matter of minutes. And your imperfections of the cheese seen from step 3 are now completely hidden.

Step Eight: In the center of the cheese, squeeze a dollop of cream cheese. It will look just like you topped your pie with whipped cream!
