Christmas Cheese Log
16 oz. cream cheese, room temperature
8 oz. Pepper Jack cheese, shredded
1/3 cup Parmesan Cheese, shredded
Scant 1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/2 tsp minced garlic
1/4 cup green bell pepper, finely diced
1/4 cup red pepper, finely diced
3 green onions, tops included, sliced
2 cups pecans, finely chopped
1 cup Craisins, chopped
Combine cream cheese, Pepper Jack cheese, Parmesan Cheese, mayonnaise, and garlic.
Mix in the green bell peppers, red peppers, and green onions just until combined. Do not overbeat.
Spread the pecans and Craisins on to a long piece of plastic wrap. Wet your hands so the cheese mixture doesn’t stick to you. Form the mixture into a long “log” and use the extra pecans and Craisins to cover the top, sides, and ends of the log.
Once coated with nuts and Craisins, use the plastic wrap to tightly cover the cheese log and use your hands to finish forming the log into shape.
Refrigerate two to three hours, or overnight, before serving.
