Equipment

Ingredients

600 grams burrata 4 balls
1 bocconcini ball
1 mozzarella ball
1 slice ham
1 kalamata olive
300 grams grape tomatoes
10 fresh basil leaves
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons balsamic glaze
sea salt to taste
pepper to taste

Instructions

Place four burrata on a platter, two on top of the other.
Slice the mozzarella.
Use the large petal cutter to make the momma bunny’s ears.
Cut the inside of the ears using ham and the medium petal cutter.
Repeat for the baby bunny, using the medium and small petal 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 used 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.
