Cranberry cheese appetizer

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup pecans, finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary leaves, finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup dried cranberries, chopped
  • 1 4-ounce goat cheese log
  • 3 tablespoons honey, divided
  • Crackers or bread slices

Instructions

  1. Combine the chopped pecans, rosemary leaves, and cranberries in a medium bowl and stir to combine.
  2. Place the goat cheese log in a rimmed bowl and drizzle 2 tablespoons honey on top. Turn the cheese log while spreading the honey evenly across the entire surface with clean fingers.
  3. Sprinkle the chopped pecan mixture over the honey-covered cheese log and gently press it into the surface until evenly coated.
  4. Drizzle the remaining honey on a small serving platter to hold the cheese log in place. Place the goat cheese in the center and sprinkle any remaining cranberry-pecan mixture around it.
  5. Serve immediately with crackers or bread slices.
Kid Cooking Tip: Kids can help stir the coating mixture, drizzle the honey, and press the cranberry mixture onto the cheese log.
