RECIPE BY LOUISE LAURENIUS cheese tree snacks
CHRISTMAS GATHERING
Food creator Louise Laurenius inspires Christmas coziness. Create simple cheese snacks shaped like Chritmas trees for the mulled wine gathering or cosy sofa time.
RECIPE: CHEESE TREES
1 pack of triangular cheeses, e.g. brie or "The Laughing Cow"
Dried thyme
Dried chilli flakes
Sea salt & black pepper
Salt sticks
INSTRUCTIONS
Spread the thyme, chilli flakes, salt, and pepper onto a plate or tray.
Dip the cheeses in the spice mixture so that they are covered on all sides and resemble a Christmas tree.
Break a salt stick in half and insert one half into the bottom of the tree.
Arrange on a serving platter and serve at the mulled wine gathering or during cosy sofa time.
Note that the cheese may crack if it sits too long with the stick inserted, so do not insert the stick until just before serving.
