Provided by rrxing

Number Of Ingredients 5

6 hard boiled eggs
Chives
Radishes, sliced thinly
Cheese
12 black peppercorns

Steps:

  • Slice the cheese and put in the middle of a plate. Cut the hard boiled eggs in half and put around the cheese, with the narrow part of the egg facing in and egg yolk down. The egg white becomes the shape of the mice. Take the radish slices and put two in each egg white for the ears. So, smaller radishes are best. Place two peppercorns under the radish slices for eyes. Take the chives and cut into about 2-inch pieces and tuck into the other side of the egg white for a tail. Enjoy your mice and cheese!
