Servings: 10
Equipment
- 10 5-inch cocktail picks or skewers
Ingredients
olives (you're going to need a total of 60 olives)
- 24 small readymade stuffed olives, choose different types from your olive bar or condiment aisle.
DIY Boursin stuffed olives
- 12 pitted black olives
- 1/2 cup Boursin cheese
- 2 Tbsp cream, to thin the cheese
Jalapeño cream cheese stuffed olives
- 12 pitted green olives
- 1/2 cup cream cheese
- 1 small jalapeño, chopped
DIY marinated stuffed olives
- 12 jarred pimento stuffed olives
- 4 Tbsp chili crisp
Instructions
Boursin stuffed olives
- Stir together the Boursin and cream until it is smooth. You want it to be thin enough to pipe into your olives, so add a bit more cream if yours is very thick.
- Load into a small piping bag (or baggie) and cut a very small snip off the tip.
- Pipe the cheese into the hole of each olive.
Jalapéno cream cheese stuffed olives
- Blend cream cheese with chopped peppers in a small food processor until very smooth and creamy. You don't want any larger bits of pepper because they can get caught in the piping tip.
- Load into a small piping bag (or baggie) and cut a very small snip off the tip.
- Pipe the cheese into the hole of each olive.
Marinated stuffed olives
- Put the stuffed olives in a small bowl and top with chili crisp. Stir to combine and let sit for at least an hour, or overnight in the fridge.
assemble your stuffed olive picks
- You should have about 60 olives, allowing about 6 to each pick. Thread the olives on your cocktail picks, alternating types for a pretty presentation. If your picks are shorter or longer than mine, adjust the olives to fit.
- These picks are best served soon after assembling, but you can keep them covered in a damp cloth or paper towels in the fridge for a few hours if you need to.
Notes
Allow about 6 olives or 1 skewer per person
