CREAM CHEESE AND ALMOND PINECONE
I have been making this cheese spread for many years and it is always a big hit. It's a very fancy looking but easy spread for crackers. I like to serve it on a pedestal cake plate decorated with silk holly leaves or a big red bow at the top.

Steps:
- In a 350 degree oven toast the almonds in a single layer on a cookie sheet.
- Meanwhile, combine the room temperature cheeses. Mound the cheese mixture onto the serving platter and shape into a pinecone shape with a spreading knife. Beginning at the bottom, pointed end of the pinecone begin placing the toasted almonds in rows, overlapping them slightly as you build the rows. The almonds should have the tapered end pointing downward. When it is done it will look like a huge pinecone. Decorate with silk leaves or a bow. Serve with an assortment of crackers and festive spreading knives.
