• 1 8-ounce package cream cheese
• 5 smoked almonds
• 1 cup raspberry preserves
• 1-1/2 tablespoons adobo sauce from canned chipotle peppers in adobo
sauce
• 1-1/2 tablespoons raspberry vinegar
• Wheat or melba crackers
Method:
You can use the block of cream cheese or make a hand out of it for
halloween...either way this is delicious.
Place cream cheese in center of serving platter. Using a sharp knife,
cut 4 lengthwise slits in cream cheese, equally spaced, approximately
halfway down the block of cream cheese, cutting all the way through
the block of cream cheese. Using your hands, shape five "fingers" from
the cut sections of the cream cheese. Round off opposite end of block
of cream cheese to resemble palm. Place smoked almonds at the tip of
each finger to resemble fingernails. In a small bowl, stir together
raspberry preserves, adobo sauce, and raspberry vinegar. Pour
raspberry mixture over palm end of cream cheese. Serve with wheat or
melba crackers.
