Cream Cheese Penguins
Ingredients
- 18 jumbo black olives, pitted
- 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
- 18 small black olives
- 1 carrot
Steps
- Cut a slit lengthwise (from top to bottom) into one side of each jumbo olive. Carefully insert about 1 teaspoon cream cheese into slits in each jumbo olive.
- Slice carrot into 18 1/4-inch-thick rounds; cut a small (pie-shaped) notch out of each carrot slice to form feet. Save the cut out pieces; press pieces into centers of small olives to form beaks. If necessary cut a small slit into each small olive before inserting the beak.
- Set a jumbo olive, large hole side down, onto a carrot slice. Then, set a small olive onto the jumbo olive, adjusting so that the beak, cream cheese chest, and notch in the carrot (feet) slice line up. Secure with a toothpick.
