    Hot Pepper Jelly 
  Cheese 
  1/4 cup pine nuts 
 8 oz cream cheese at room temperature 
1 cup hot pepper jelly, preferably red  
2 cloves garlic 
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro 
5 oz sharp cheddar cheese, grated (about 1 1/4 cups)
  
  Preheat oven to 325 degrees.  Place the pine nuts on a 
  baking sheet and toast in the oven until golden about 8 minutes.  Set aside.
  
 Place the cream cheese, 1/2 cup jelly, garlic, cilantro 
  and Cheddar cheese in a food processor. Process until evenly blended. Line 
  the bottom of a 7 inch spring mold with parchment paper and spray the sides 
  with a nonstick spray, or use a smooth bowl and line with plastic wrap. 
  Add the cheese mixture. 
  
  Refrigerate for at least 2 hours. Turn out of mold onto 
  a serving plate. Spread the remaining 1/2 cup of jelly on the top and sprinkle 
  on the pine nuts.
  
  (Note: this can be made up to 24 hours in 
  advance.) 
  Provide a butter knife or cheese spreader. Great 
  appetizer with wheat crackers.
