Step-by-Step Instructions
- Cover the cone in the foil.
- Randomly insert some toothpicks and skewer the green olives onto the toothpicks. Repeat to cover the cone as much as possible.
- Fill in some of the gaps with black olives.
- Next, add more toothpicks and "decorate" the tree with some small mozzarella pearls.
- If you have any obvious gaps, push some small rosemary sprigs in (you might need to create a hole with a toothpick first).
- Finally, use a cookie cutter to cut a star from some cheese. Secure it to the top of the tree with a toothpick.
- See notes for storage details and advance prep.
