SUN-DRIED TOMATO CHEESE SPREAD



Sun-Dried Tomato Cheese Spread image

Made this for Christmas-so good, I made it for gifts. So easy and tastes like an expensive purchased cheese spread. From Women's Day. It originally called for sundried tomato pesto, which I couldn't find, so used the tapenade instead. I like Laurel Chenel herb goat cheese for this.
