I'm not sure what went wrong, but my appetizer turned out really dry. I think I might have overcooked it.

This appetizer is a little too rich for my taste. I would probably use less cream cheese next time.

This appetizer is a great way to use up leftover cranberries. I always have a bunch left over after Thanksgiving, so this is a great way to use them up.

I'm not a big fan of cranberries, but I actually really enjoyed this appetizer. The cheese and nuts helped to balance out the tartness of the cranberries.

The only thing I would change about this recipe is to use less sugar. I found it to be a little too sweet for my taste.
