Ghostly Caprese Skewers with Balsamic Glaze
Equipment
- Wooden skewers
- Sharp knife
Ingredients
- 12 small fresh mozzarella balls
- 12 cherry tomatoes
- 12 fresh basil leaves
- 4 black olives
- 1/4 cup balsamic glaze
- 12 wooden skewers
Instructions
- Slice each black olive into small rounds or pieces to create eyes for the ghosts.
- Thread one cherry tomato onto each wooden skewer, followed by one basil leaf and one mozzarella ball.
- Press two olive pieces gently onto the front of each mozzarella ball to form eyes.
- Arrange the finished skewers on a serving plate.
- Drizzle the balsamic glaze evenly over the skewers just before serving.
Notes
Keep the assembled skewers covered in the fridge until guests arrive, then add the glaze at the last moment so it stays glossy. If you run short on time, buy pre-sliced olives to speed up the eye step. The recipe works best with small mozzarella balls that stay secure on the skewers.
