Ingredients

½ cup pecans finely chopped
2 Tbsp. fresh rosemary leaves finely chopped
½ cup dried cranberries chopped
8 ounces goat cheese
6 Tbsp. honey divided

Instructions

Combine chopped pecans, rosemary leaves, and cranberries in a medium bowl and stir to combine. Set aside.
Place the goat cheese log in a rimmed bowl and drizzle 4 tablespoons of the honey on top. Turn the cheese log while spreading the honey evenly across the entire surface with clean fingers.
Sprinkle the chopped pecan mixture across the top of the honey-covered cheese log and gently press into the surface until the entire log is evenly coated.
Drizzle the remaining honey on a small serving platter or round plate as shown to hold the cheese log in place. Position the goat cheese in the center and sprinkle any remaining cranberry-pecan mixture around it. Serve immediately with your choice of crackers or crostini. Enjoy!
