Instructions
 

MOZZARELLA PREPARATION

  • Place the mini mozzarella balls into a microwave safe bowl. Heat for 15 seconds at a time until they are soft to the touch and lightly melted (45 seconds for me). NOTE: The cooking time will depend on the size of the mozzarella you use.

  • Remove the bowl from the microwave and drain the water. Take 2 balls of mozzarella at a time and press them down into each well of the skull mold. NOTE: It will release additional liquid, that's normal. Press down a kitchen towel on top to absorb and refrigerate while preparing the salad.
