  • Cut the inside of the ears using ham and the medium petal-shaped cutter.
  • Repeat for the baby bunny, using the medium and small petal-shaped cutters.
  • Halve a kalamata olive and cut out the eyes and noses with a metal straw. You can trim off some of the olives so they are flat.
  • Arrange the eyes and noses on the burrata faces.
  • Halve a bocconcini to make the tail (or use more fresh mozzarella and a small round cookie cutter).
  • Top with basil leaves, olive oil, and balsamic glaze.
  • Sprinkle with sea salt and pepper.
  • Serve.

Notes

I bought two different types of burrata for this (one was larger than the three others) - hence it became a momma and baby bunny, but you could keep them all the same size, too.
