2-Next, cut a small indent in each mozzarella ball to form the eye socket, setting the stage for that creepy detail.

5-Wrap each indented mozzarella ball with a slice of the prepared cured meat, securing it snugly.

6-Skewer each wrapped ball with a toothpick or small skewer, then add a piece of chopped olive, sun-dried tomato, or caper into the indent to finish the eyeball effect.
