Another One Of Graces Holiday Cheese Spreads Recipes

THE BEST SAVORY CHEESE SPREAD APPETIZER

Steps:

• Grate extra sharp white cheddar. You'll need 2 cups. You can use a food processor or a hand grater to accomplish this. I have done it with both. The food processor just makes the process faster.
• Wash and chop 1 full bunch of green onions.
• Measure and set aside 1 cup of mayonnaise.
• Chop the pecans (to desired piece size). You'll need 3/4 cup chopped pieces. Tip: you can find small bags of pieces already chopped in the baking aisle of most grocery stores if you don't want to buy a large bag. I prefer to buy bulk bags since I do a lot of baking.
• Measure out 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper and set aside.
• Add 2 cups grated extra sharp white cheddar to a large mixing bowl or stand mixer. I prefer to mix mine in my kitchen-aid stand mixer, but by hand works just as well.
• Combine 1 cup mayonnaise to shredded cheese and mix until mostly incorporated.
• Add chopped pecans and mix again.
• Incorporate cayenne pepper to taste. 1/2 teaspoon is recommended and doesn't offer extreme heat.
• Plate for immediate serving or cover and refrigerate for later.
• Enjoy!
