A child of any age will love these south pole cuties!

"I've made these many times and guests always love them! I added some powdered ranch dressing to the cream cheese to give it more flavor! I made scarves by slicing thin strips of jarred red peppers. I even made this for a Super Bowl party! I made a cheese ball shaped like a football and surrounded it with these cute penguins! I added my photos!" - LillianRusso

1 12-oz canblack olives; Medium
1 Carrot; peeled
4 ozsCream cheese

March of the Penguins Preparation

Peel and slice the carrot into 1/8 inch rounds. Remove a pie wedge from each round. (that will be the penguin beak). Put the cream cheese in a small plastic baggy and snip the end. Slice open the jumbo olive and pipe in the cream cheese. Slice an opening on the medium olive for the carrot pie wedge and insert. Now stack the medium olive on the stuffed jumbo olive, on top of the carrot slice and secure with a frilly toothpick.

Notes

I don't know of anything more festive than these little guys. I like a jalapeno flavored cream cheese.

    These were a huge hit! I used regular cream cheese but next time I'll try a flavored cream cheese. Everyone loved these and commented on how cute they were.

    How crazy do you have to be to make these

    Absolutely too, too cute for words.....everyone commented on how adorablethey were, but I made up a cream cheese and chargrilled pepper(yellow) mix to use as the stuffing. I guess any dip would go well. Served on a mirror with a sprinkling of coconut.

    I think this would be great if you seasoned the cream cheese with scallions or garlic and spices, or even buy a flavored cream cheese. We're making this soon!
