Browned Butter Sage Crostini

Browned butter sage, melty mozzarella, salty prosciutto crostini...is there really more to say? Yesterday I shared this recipe for one of my favorite appetizers (of all time) on Glitter Guide. It's a mouthwatering pair of flavors that I honestly can't get enough of. And the best part about this appetizer, it's hearty enough to keep guest's hunger at bay while still elegant and refined enough to be a show stopper. It's my go-to holiday appetizer and when you make it, and taste it, you will see why!

But I simply can't take credit for inventing this lovely little bite...this recipe was first served to me by my dear friend Amanda and her Mom Robin. Thanks ladies!
