Step 1 of 3
Create a lengthwise incision from the top to the bottom on one side of every jumbo olive. Carefully place approximately one teaspoon of cream cheese into the gaps within each jumbo olive.
I love these penguins! It takes a bit of time, but the reactions make it worth it. I wanted to flavor the cream cheese without losing the white color, so I added onion powder, garlic powder, and salt. I also put a little bit of cream cheese on the carrot base to keep the olive from sliding. I ended up making 16 penguins and used less than half a block of cream cheese, maybe 3-4 ounces.

Simple to prepare. I will certainly make them again!
