Nancy’s Cheese and Nut Ring |
Author: Nicole
- 8 ounces extra sharp white cheddar cheese (see Notes)
- ⅓ cup pecans, chopped
- ⅓ cup mayonnaise
- ½ small onion, finely chopped
- ⅛ to ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper (or to taste)
- ½ cup strawberry, raspberry or apricot preserves
- Serve with crackers
- Grate cheese in a food processor or by hand.
- In a medium bowl, mix together cheese, pecans, mayonnaise, onion, and cayenne pepper. Mixture should just bind together – add additional mayonnaise if needed.
- Place a small bowl in the middle of a plate. Form a ring around the bowl with the cheese and nut mixture.
- Place preserves in bowl just before serving. Serve with crackers.
* I do not recommend using pre-shredded cheese as a shortcut. Take a few minutes to grate your cheese.
