Ingredients
8 slices prosciutto, halved lengthwise
16 mozzarella balls (ciliegine or bocconcini)
16 fresh basil leaves
Toothpicks or mini skewers
Balsamic glaze (optional)
Instructions
1. If your mozzarella balls are large, slice them in half.
2. Tear each prosciutto slice into strips long enough to wrap a mozzarella ball.
3. Layer one basil leaf on each mozzarella ball.
4. Wrap the prosciutto around the mozzarella and basil.
5. Secure with a toothpick or mini skewer.
6. Chill until serving. Drizzle with balsamic glaze just before serving, if desired.
Notes
These bites can be made up to 4 hours ahead. Store in the fridge.
Add cherry tomatoes for a Caprese-style skewer.
Try different cheeses like burrata or marinated feta for variation.
