Wisconsin Cheese and Herb Snack Platter

Ingredients

- 4 ounces Wisconsin cream cheese, softened
- 4 ounces sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
- 4 ounces beer cheese, cubed
- 4 ounces almond Swiss cheese, thinly sliced
- 2 ounces port wine cheese, spread or ball
- 1 cup pretzels
- 1 cup sturdy crackers
- ½ cup petite dill pickles, whole or sliced
- ½ cup toasted nuts (such as almonds or walnuts)
- Assorted fresh herbs (such as parsley, chives, or dill) for garnish

Instructions

1. Prepare the Cheese:
Begin by arranging the Wisconsin cream cheese, sharp cheddar cheese, beer cheese, almond Swiss cheese, and port wine cheese on a large serving platter. Lightly soften the cream cheese to make it easier for spreading, and keep other cheeses in attractive cuts or stacks.

2. Add the Accompaniments:
Around the edges of the platter, artfully place the pretzels and sturdy crackers. These will provide a delightful crunch that complements the creaminess of the cheeses.

3. Include Pickles and Nuts:
Nestle petite dill pickles in small clusters around the cheeses. Scatter the toasted nuts in between each section, offering texture and a nutty flavor that pairs well with the cheeses.

4. Garnish with Herbs:
Finely chop a selection of fresh herbs. Sprinkle them generously over the cheeses and accompaniments to enhance flavor and add a pop of color.

5. Serve and Enjoy:
Present the cheese platter as an eye-catching snack that’s ready to serve! This no-cook snack platter is perfect for entertaining or enjoying as a quick gourmet treat.
