Original Recipe Yield 24 appetizers

Ingredients

24 long cocktail toothpicks
48 cherry or grape tomatoes, rinsed and dried
6 thin slices prosciutto, each cut into quarters
24 bite-size marinated mozzarella balls*
24 fresh basil leaves
1/4 cup Italian salad dressing

Directions

Thread each toothpick with: one tomato, 1/4 of a slice of prosciutto folded into a small square, one mozzarella ball, one basil leaf (folded if it is large), and one more tomato.
Arrange appetizers on a serving platter. Drizzle with your favorite Italian salad dressing.

Footnotes

*If marinated mozzarella is not available, you can make your own. Buy bite-size plain mozzarella balls, or cut large fresh mozzarella balls into bite-size cubes. Marinate in olive oil, minced garlic, chopped basil, plain or flavored vinegar, and Italian seasoning for several hours before assembling the appetizers.
