How to make Fruit and Nut Cheeselog
- Using a mixer, blend all cheeses and butter on low speed until smooth. Fold in chopped fruits, nuts and parsley. Using an 8-inch long sheet of Glad Cook ‘N bake, place approximately 1/2 cup of cheese mixture in the middle of the sheet.
- Fold paper and using your palm, lightly press the mixture towards you to form a log. Roll the paper until desired thickness is achieved. Secure both ends by twisting simultaneously like wrapping a candy. Chill until firm.
- Unwrap the logs, roll in chopped parsley or Parmesan cheese if desired. Serve with toasted bread or crackers as a spread.
