Spooky Guacamole In A Witches Fingers Bread Bowl

Spooky Guacamole In A Witches Fingers Bread Bowl

Ingredients

    For the bread bowl:
  • 1 package of croissants
  • For the Spookamole:
  • 2 Hass Avacados
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/8 cup chives, finely chopped
  • 1 medium tomato, chopped
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon lime juice, fresh squeezed
  • 1/3rd of a peeled cucumber, diced
  • 1 Tablespoon sour cream (put in baggie for piping spiderweb)

Instructions

  1. I used a tube of croissants and fanned them out on a round stone. I made sure that the middle would be covered since that was the base of my bowl.
  2. I added foil crunched in a circle so I could bake the fingers so they would look like they would be holding the Spookamole.
  3. I had one finger that fell during baking so I added a toothpick to it while it cooled, which worked perfectly. Once the bread was cooled and was close to serving time I added some of our ripe cherry tomatoes right from our garden. I halved them and added a little cream cheese to the fingertips to act as a glue and put the red fingernails on. (Another option would be to put black olives as the fingertips and make a spider out of an olive and place it in the spookamole.)
  4. Add the avocados to bowl and mash with a fork. Add all ingredients and mix together. Once all ingredients have been combined, add spookamole into the Freakishly Fingerbowl. Add a tablespoon of sour cream into a baggie and cut a small corner off of the bag. Pipe several circles on the spookamole, then take a tooth pick and pull the circles so that it looks like a spiderweb. Adorn with plastic spiders or make some with black olives. Enjoy!
