We went over to Gramma & Aunt Susie’s house for Christmas, and this year Aunt Susie requested cream cheese penguins, so here’s what we brought!
This batch was fun to make. The hats are fashioned from grape tomatoes… I cut the pointy part off, scooped out the guts with a knife, dried the inside with a paper towel, and pre-poked the hole in the top so they didn’t squish the head down too much. They made great hats and they tasted good, too!
In case you’re interested… see the recipe and more pictures.

I can attest to these being so much fun to make – the first few you make are a little sad looking but they get so much better as you keep making them – listen to Emily when she says “stuff them fuller with the cream cheese” cause it makes a difference — and always remember 2 things: 1) you can eat your mistakes ;=), 2) Travis will help eat most of the leftover olive ‘parts’!
