For the Cheese Base
  • 1 log Goat Cheese Creamy base; for a different flavor, use fresh cream cheese.
For the Topping
  • 1/2 cup Roasted Pistachios Chopped; can substitute walnuts or almonds.
  • 1/4 cup Honey Can use agave syrup for a vegan option.

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Finely chop roasted pistachios on a cutting board to ensure a coarse texture. Transfer to a small plate.
  2. Roll the goat cheese log gently in the chopped pistachios until evenly coated. Place on a serving tray.
  3. Drizzle honey generously over the goat cheese log, allowing it to cascade down the sides.
  4. Heat fig spread in the microwave for about 10-15 seconds to make it easier to drizzle.
  5. Drizzle the warmed fig spread over the honey-topped goat cheese log and serve with crackers or bread.

Notes

Consider adding dried cranberries for color and sweetness, or fresh herbs for an aromatic touch. Best served fresh, but can be made a few hours ahead without the final drizzle of honey and fig spread.
