Mini Pumpkin Pies – Made with Cheese & Crackers
Surprise your kids or guest with these adorable mini pumpkin pies. Completely made from cheese & crackers. You can use them as your next April fools joke or use them as little savory appetizers. I am really thinking that this would be perfect around Thanksgiving.
Believe me, they will be a hit at your next get together. I love creating super cute foods. These Mini Pumpkin Pies Snacks are just that!
It’s the perfect fall party finger food. The best part of all is creating your little pies. You can get your kids involved. Easy, cheesy and sure to please.
Not Really Mini Pumpkin Pies At All
To make the little pie slices we just use two types of crackers along with cheddar cheese and cream cheese. (We used Triscuit because they are already in triangle shapes, but you can try using a square cracker and cut in half – it may be a bit tricky!) I think the little dollop of cream cheese “whipped cream” gives them the perfect finishing touch!
Ingredients
Extra sharp cheddar cheese (I used Cracker Barrel)
Whipped Cream Cheese
Triscuit crackers or another triangle-shaped cracker
Instructions
These cute little appetizers are fun to make (it’s a great way to get the kids involved in preparing Thanksgiving dinner) and fun to serve.
You’re sure to get a lot of ooohs and ahhhs when your guests see them on your Thanksgiving table!
1. Cut your cheddar cheese into thick slices.
2. Place a slice of cheese on the Triscuit cracker.
3. Slice the cheese to form a triangle that will fit the Triscuit cracker.
4. 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.
5. Place in a Ziploc bag a few spoonfuls of whipped cream cheese. Cut a very tiny hole in the corner of the bag.
6. 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.
7. 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’.
8. In the center of the cheese, squeeze a dollop of cream cheese. It will look just like you topped your pie with whipped cream!
