Prosciutto Ham Meat Head
Ingredients:
1 Plastic skull (can be found at most party stores or craft stores)
Tin foil
Toothpicks
1 pound of prosciutto or deli ham, sliced thin
1 small container of small Mozzarella cheese balls
1 small can on black olives sliced or black gel icing
Small red cake icing tube
Directions:
Wrap the skull with foil being sure to cover it completely. It may take a few overlapping layers of foil to get it all covered. You don't want the food to be resting on the plastic skull in case anyone wants to eat the meat. Layer the ham over the skull to cover it completely. If you are having trouble getting it to stick simply smear on a little cream cheese to act as a glue to hold the meat to the head. Secure the eyeballs to the eye sockets with a toothpick. Use red icing for veins in eyes. You can attach the olive slices to the remainder of the cheese balls with toothpicks so they look like eyeballs or use black gel. Serve them around the head. Chill in fridge until ready to serve
