- Place one olive half on each mozzarella ball to finish the eyeball look.
Serving

Notes
Store leftover eyeball appetizers in an airtight container in the fridge. Eat them within 1 to 2 days for the best taste and texture. Keep the dip in a separate container. If the mozzarella balls release liquid, gently pat them dry before serving again. Kids can help assemble the eyes while an adult handles the knife.
