250 grams cherry tomatoes
03 -
15 grams fresh basil leaves

# How to Make It:
01 -
Preheat the oven to 180°C. Drain the Ciligiene mozzarella balls thoroughly.

Place one mozzarella ball into each skull mold and bake on a baking sheet for 6 to 8 minutes until softened.

Remove molds from oven. Using a folded paper towel, press each softened ball firmly into the mold to absorb excess liquid and ensure detailed shaping.

06 -
Gently press the backside of each mold to release the skull-shaped mozzarella.
