Instructions

Using a round cookie cutter 8 to 10 cm across (or a water glass), cut the bread slices to obtain 24 circles.
Cut the cheese slices into angles to make pointy or square teeth.
Place 12 bread circles on a work surface and arrange ham slices on top.
Place cut cheese slices on top with cheese sticking out to make teeth.
Close sandwiches and place 2 olives per head to make the eyes (hole and pimento up) and secure with toothpicks.
Cut carrots in 2 and place between the two eyes.
Make a tongue by inserting a piece of red pepper between the ham slices.
Place monster heads on a platter, covering with a bell or plastic wrap until ready to serve.
