PENGUINS

Steps:

• Hard boil as many eggs as you would like Penguins.
• Clean a "fat" carrot (first removing the green) and cut about an inch off the carrot from the top.
• Cut a notch (upside-down V,) in front and in back of the carrot . Your carrot now looks like penguin feet.
• After your eggs have cooled, peel the shell off.
• Take a long toothpick and put it into the center of the "feet".
• Slip the cooled hard boiled egg onto the toothpick, wide side down.
• Slip a short toothpick, through the egg. About half way up the egg.
• Cut a "beak" from a leftover piece of carrot
• Make a small nick in the middle of a jumbo pitted black olive and push the carrot (beak) into the olive.
• Place the olive on top of the toothpick, sticking out of the body, he now has a head!
• Get another black pitted olive and cut it in half.
• Place each half onto the "arms" of the short toothpick, penguin flippers!
• They look great in the middle of a plate of Deviled Eggs.
• No two penguins look alike and everyone loves them.
• Get creative, give them a scarf or cut the beak so that it's open".
• (Safety Note) Watch the toothpicks around kids, they will want to eat the penguins.
• (Second Safety Note) Watch the adults too.

CREAM CHEESE PENGUINS

Steps:

• Cut a slit from top to bottom, lengthwise, into the side of each jumbo olive. Carefully insert about 1 teaspoon of cream cheese into each olive. Slice the carrot into eighteen 1/4 inch thick rounds; cut a small notch out of each carrot slice to form feet. Save the cut out piece and press into center of small olive to form the beak. If necessary cut a small slit into each olive before inserting the beak.
• Set a big olive, large hole side down, onto a carrot slice. Then, set a small olive onto the large olive, adjusting so that the beak, cream cheese chest and notch in the carrot slice line up. Secure with a toothpick.
