All you need for these handsome Penguins is jumbo olives, small olives, carrots and cream cheese.
Cut a slit from top to bottom on the jumbo olive, and carefully insert about a teaspoon of cream cheese.
Slice the carrot into 1/4" thick rounds, cut a small notch to form feet. Save the cut out piece for the beak and press into the small olive (the head). Secure with a toothpick.
Give it a try....they are FUN! I plan on using them on my veggie platter and might also try a flavored cream cheese.
