Edible Olive Penguins

Print Recipe

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 can colossal pitted black olives about 16, drained
  • 16 small pitted black olives give or take, drained
  • about 4 ounces of Cream Cheese, softened
  • 16 thin slices of the fat end of a peeled carrot

Instructions

  1. Cut a small triangular wedge out of each carrot slice. Stuff the small cut out piece into the smaller olives to create a ‘beak’.
  2. Place the cream cheese in a ziplock bag and cut one corner off to make a piping bag. 
  3. Make a lengthwise slice halfway into each colossal olive. Fill the olive using the piping bag.
  4. Use your fingers or a paper towel to tidy up along the edges of the opening.
  5. Using a toothpick, skewer the ‘head’ (the smaller olive with the carrot slice) then the colossal olive and finally the carrot slice, making the feet. 
  6. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to serve.
