Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 oz Cream cheese
- 4 oz Goat cheese
- 1 cup Sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
- 2 tbsp Unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup Chutney (mango or apricot preferred)
- 0.5 cup Chopped pecans, toasted
- 2 tbsp Fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 package Crackers or toasted bread, for serving
Instructions
1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, goat cheese, shredded cheddar, and softened butter. Mix thoroughly using a hand mixer or wooden spoon until smooth and well-blended.
2. Transfer the cheese mixture onto a piece of plastic wrap or parchment paper. Shape it into a smooth, compact mound or form into a log shape if desired. Wrap tightly and refrigerate for 1 hour or until firm.
3. While the cheese pâté chills, toast the chopped pecans in a dry skillet over medium heat for 3-5 minutes, stirring regularly, until fragrant and golden. Remove from heat and let cool.
4. Once the cheese mixture is firm, unwrap it and place it on a serving platter. Spoon the chutney over the top, spreading it evenly to cover the surface.
5. Sprinkle the toasted pecans and chopped parsley over the chutney layer for added texture and color.
6. Serve immediately with crackers or toasted bread slices, or refrigerate until ready to serve. Allow to sit at room temperature for 15 minutes before serving for maximum spreadability.
