Method

Step-by-Step Instructions

Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Once the oven is ready, take the mini mozzarella balls and gently blot them with a paper towel to remove any excess moisture.
Next, place one mozzarella ball into each cavity of the silicone skull mold and ensure that the mold is well-filled.
Carefully transfer the filled skull mold to your preheated oven and bake for 8-10 minutes.
Once baked, remove the mold from the oven and gently press down on each mozzarella ball to help it fully take on the skull shape.
Let the shaped mozzarella skulls cool for about 10 minutes, or refrigerate to speed up the process.
Finally, carefully flip the silicone mold and gently press to release each cheese skull.
