The Best Cheese Log Recipe

Tuesday, December 17, 2013 by Lolli 8 Comments

This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of Kraft. The opinions and text are all mine.

Looking for more holiday recipes? You’ll love these Salted Maple Cashew Haystacks or this NEW sweet and salty Cinnamon Pecan Crunch cheese log.

Years ago (maybe 15 years?), my good friend brought a cheese log to a holiday party we both attended and I fell in love. I asked her for the recipe later that week and I’ve been making it every holiday since.

Last month, as I was walking my youngest son to school one morning, we were talking about the upcoming holidays. Forget turkey, ham, mashed potatoes, or pies. His question was, “Will you be making cheese log?”

I’ve been making it for so many years now that I’ve adopted it fully as my own. It is an important part of our family’s holiday traditions as the Christmas tree or the Thanksgiving turkey.

And it wouldn’t be possible without Kraft cheeses.

This cheese log is perfect for holiday entertaining, not only because it’s so tasty but because it’s so simple to make. Just place it on a small platter with a cheese knife and surrounded by your favorite crackers and you’re set! Enjoy one of my favorite holiday recipes!

The cheese log can be shaped into anything from this point. We prefer the log shape, but balls work just as well!

This is how we wrap the cheese log. It helps keep the “log” shape!

    Yes, I bet that would work! It’s such a small amount that I bet you could even leave it out completely.
