Caprese Crostini Ghosts Ingredients:
Caprese Crostini Ghosts Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Place the mozzarella in the freezer to firm up for 10 minutes.
- Slice the baguette diagonally into 1/2-inch-thick slices and spread evenly on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and toss to coat. Bake until golden and crisp, 8 to 9 minutes. Let cool.
- Slice the mozzarella lengthwise into six 1/4-inch-thick planks. Use a ghost cookie cutter about 2 inches tall to cut slices into ghost-shaped pieces. Roughly chop all the remaining mozzarella scraps.
- Spread the cooled crostini with about 1 teaspoon pesto each. Top 6 of the crostini with a few tomato slices and mozzarella ghosts. Pour the balsamic glaze into a small bowl and use a chopstick or the flat end of a skewer to dot the ghosts with eyes and mouths (see Cook’s Note). Top the remaining crostini with one slice of tomato and a tablespoon of the chopped mozzarella. Drizzle these non-ghost crostini with balsamic glaze.
- Transfer the ghost crostini to a small plate, and the rest of the crostini to a large platter (you want your ghosts to be the attention). Serve immediately.
