Description

Create fun and spooky Coffin Sandwiches for Halloween parties. These easy-to-make, customizable sandwiches are perfect for any festive gathering.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 slices sandwich bread (white, wheat, or dark rye)
  • 3 slices cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or provolone)
  • 3–4 slices deli meat (turkey, chicken, or vegetarian alternatives)
  • Butter or mayo, for spreading
  • Mustard or other sauces, optional
  • Lettuce or spinach leaves, optional
  • Olives or chives, for decoration
  • Cookie cutter in a coffin shape, or a small knife
  • Edible markers or ketchup for decoration

Instructions

  1. Prepare your fillings by laying out sliced meats, cheeses, lettuce, and condiments.
  2. Cut coffin shapes from each bread slice using a cookie cutter or a knife.
  3. Spread butter, mayo, or your chosen condiment on the bread slices.
  4. Layer cheese, meat, and optional greens on one slice, then top with another coffin-shaped slice.
  5. Decorate the sandwiches with ketchup, mustard, edible markers, or olive slices to create spooky designs.
  6. Serve immediately or refrigerate covered for up to 3 hours before serving.

Notes

  • For a realistic look, use dark rye or pumpernickel bread.
  • Lightly toast the bread if using moist fillings to prevent sogginess.
  • Add colorful ingredients like red peppers or purple cabbage for visual appeal.
  • Vegetarian options include hummus, cream cheese, or veggie spreads.
  • Serve with themed sides such as Halloween Pasta Salad or Monster Mac and Cheese.
