I make a cheese log similar to this around Christmas time, but wanted to try my hand at a pumpkin spice one for a neighborhood moms gathering I was hosting and OMG! Amazing. This would be a perfect appetizer for any Fall event!
INGREDIENTS
- 8oz goat cheese
- 4 oz cream cheese
- 2 TBS pumpkin butter (I love the one from Trader Joe’s)
- 1 tsp pumpkin spice blend
- 1/2 c pecans
- 1/2 c dried cranberries
INSTRUCTIONS
- Pulse pecans and cranberries in food processor until finely chopped consistency.
- Set all but about 1/4 c aside.
- With the 3/4 c remaining, add cheeses and pumpkin spice and pulse until thoroughly mixed.
- Form into log on plastic wrap, roll tightly, and place in refrigerator for half an hour.
- Once fully chilled, take out, remove from plastic wrap, and coat the outside in remaining pecans and cranberries.
- Roll back up in plastic wrap, and chill until chow time!
