    Today I'm sharing a cute little ham and cheese Christmas cracker snack idea. This is one of those ideas that is really easy to make but look great with minimal effort required!

    These festive savoury crackers are perfect for a quick snack in the busy run up to Christmas or for an easy Christmas party food idea for kids - it takes just minutes to put together a platter full.

    This makes a nice easy recipe for kids to put together themselves too - a fun activity to keep them quiet when the Christmas holidays arrive!

    Ham & Cheese Christmas Crackers

    Ingredients:

    • 10 small savoury crackers (I used Ritz)
    • 2 ham slices
    • 2 cheddar cheese slices

    Method: 

    Lay out the crackers on a plate or platter.

    Using a circle cutter the same size or slightly smaller than the crackers, cut out rounds of ham and pop one on top of each cracker. I used the crinkle side of the cutter to make them a little more decorative.

    Cut shapes from the cheese using festive themed mini cutters (I love the snowflake cutter from this bento cutter set) and pop them on top of the ham.
