Description
This Cranberry Pecan Goat Cheese Wreath Spread is perfect for your holiday gatherings!
Ingredients
Scale
- 10.5 oz goat cheese
- 8 oz cream cheese
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- 3 TBSP Honey
- 1 1/2 cups of pecans chopped
- 1 cup diced dried cranberries
- 1/2 cup minced fresh parsley
Instructions
- Cut a 10″ circle out of parchment paper and place it in the center of your serving platter
- This will be the template for your cheese spread placement
- In a large bowl, beat goat cheese, cream cheese, cinnamon, and honey until light and fluffy
- Add 1/2 cup of chopped pecans and stir until combined
- Line your countertop with parchment paper and lay the remaining pecans, dried cranberries, and parsley on top
- Spread out evenly over the parchment paper
- Form two or three long logs of cheese
- If you create 2, they should each be approximately 14 inches long
- With three logs, they should each be around 9 inches long
- Roll them over the pecan, dried cranberries and parsley mixture, generously coating the outer layer
- Place on the edge of the parchment circle
- Repeat with the second log and connect them together to form a continuous circle
- If necessary, repeat with the third log
- You can now adjust the wreath shape if it is uneven and drizzle with honey if you wish
- I like to garnish with a bit of rosemary and fresh cranberries
