Description
Adorable mozzarella bites resembling spooky eyes, perfect for Halloween gatherings.
Ingredients
- Bocconcini or ciliegine mozzarella balls
- Black olives
- Cherry tomatoes
- Fresh basil
- Balsamic glaze
Instructions
- Prep your ingredients: Rinse the mozzarella balls and cherry tomatoes under cool water, then pat them dry. Slice the cherry tomatoes in half if you want a more even balance between the mozzarella and the tomato.
- Make the eyes: For each eye, take one mozzarella ball and place it in the center of your serving platter. Then, take a sliced or whole black olive and push it into the center of the mozzarella ball.
- Add the cherry tomato: Next, take a halved cherry tomato and place it right beside (or on top of) the mozzarella eye.
- Give them life: Once you’ve laid out your mozzarella eyes, finely chop some fresh basil and sprinkle it around the edges.
- Drizzle with balsamic glaze: To finish off your spooktacular creation, drizzle some balsamic glaze over the mozzarella eyes and the basil.
Notes
Assemble a few hours ahead but wait to drizzle with balsamic glaze until just before serving for freshness.
