Nice, subtle flavors and a lovely presentation. This only makes 1 1/2 cups, so if you're having a larger crowd, you may want to double. From Southern Living. Servings are approximate. Ingredients:
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened |
3 ounces goat cheese, softened |
1 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary |
2 teaspoons honey |
1 teaspoon fresh coarse ground black pepper |
fig preserves |
Directions:
1. Spray a 1 1/2 cup mold* with cooking spray, then line with plastic wrap, allowing edges to extend over the sides of the mold.
2. Set aside.
3. *Ifyou don't have a mold, you can use a miniature loaf pan, or simply shape into a log and roll in wax paper to chill.
4. Beat cheeses, rosemary, honey and pepper with an electric mixer until smooth.
5. (Or you can use a food processor).
6. Spoon the mixture into the prepared mold.
7. Cover, and chill at least 2 hrs.
