We LOVE dipping a grilled cheese in our soups—especially in Tomato Basil Soup. But for Halloween season, we’re all about scary Three Cheese Croissant Monsters! They have everything we love about a grilled cheese sandwich with a bit of added scary fun!
Ingredients:
- Plain Croissants – Pre-made (we like Hero Croissants)
- Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
- Shredded Cheddar Cheese
- Shredded Gruyere Cheese
- Mini Mozzarella Balls
- Ketchup
Method:
-
Prepare the Croissants:
Cut your croissants in half lengthwise, but don’t cut all the way through. -
Add the Cheese:
Layer in the shredded mozzarella, cheddar, and Gruyere. How much cheese you use depends on how cheesy you want your monsters to be! -
Heat the Croissants:
We used Hero Croissants, which require a pre-heated oven at 375°F for 3 minutes. Make sure to follow the heating instructions on the croissants you have. -
Melt the Cheese:
If the cheese doesn’t melt entirely in the oven, pop the croissants in the microwave for 30 seconds to finish melting. -
Make the Monster Eyes:
Cut the mozzarella balls in half. Dip the pointed end of a spoon in ketchup and press it into the center of the rounded side of the mozzarella ball to create a pupil. Use toothpicks to attach the eyes to the croissants—two toothpicks per eye might be needed for stability. -
Serve the Monsters:
Your monsters are now ready! Open them up to reveal their cheesy mouths and release some of the hot steam. Be careful—they’ll be hot!
Dip your cheesy croissant monsters in your favorite Proper Good Soup for an extra delicious bite!
