Ingredients
- 12 pieces Sun-dried tomatoes (packed in oil)
- 4 tablespoons Cream cheese
- 2 tablespoons Goat cheese (optional for tang)
- 6 pieces Fresh basil leaves
- 12 pieces Crackers or toasted baguette slices
- 1 pinch Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Honey (optional, for drizzle)
Instructions
Remove 12 sun-dried tomatoes from the jar, letting excess oil drip off, and set aside.
In a small bowl, mix the cream cheese and goat cheese (if using) until smooth and combined.
Spread a small dollop (about 1/2 teaspoon) of the cheese mixture onto each cracker or toasted baguette slice.
Place a sun-dried tomato on top of the cheese layer on each cracker or baguette slice.
Cut the fresh basil leaves in half if large, and place one half on top of each sun-dried tomato for added color and flavor.
Sprinkle a tiny pinch of black pepper over each appetizer for a touch of seasoning.
Optional: Drizzle a small drop of honey over each piece for a hint of sweetness.
Arrange the appetizers on a serving platter and serve immediately or within 30 minutes for the best freshness.
