Raspberry Cheese Ring

Submitted by Ann 3

"This appetizer can be made low fat and still taste great. The nuts and the jalapeño raspberry make it slightly different than other versions and I like the additions."

• Ingredients: 7
• Serves: 12

ingredients

• 1 lb cheddar cheese (grated, sharp)
• 1 cup mayonnaise
• 1 small onion (grated)
• 1 cup nuts, finely chopped (I use pecans)
• 1 dash cayenne
• black pepper
• raspberry preserves (I prefer a fiery jalepeno raspberry ambrosia by Praire Thyme)

directions

1. Mix cheese, nuts, mayonnaise and onion until well blended in a bowl.
2. Stir in cayenne and black pepper to taste.
3. Can be chilled overnight or served.
4. I spread it around the outside of a platter and leave a space in the center to pour the preserves into.
5. Serve with wheat crackers. I personally prefer Triscuits.
