Ingredients

  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
  • 12 cup basil pesto (use your favorite pre-made ~ or make your own)
  • cinnamon stick
  • 1 red bell pepper, chopped fine

Method

  • Cut the cream cheese in half diagonally, going corner to corner to form 2 triangles.
  • Place triangles together.
  • long straight edges together and short straight sides on the bottom, to form a Christmas tree shape on a serving plate.
  • (A Christmas tree shaped plate would be perfect!)
  • Top with pesto and insert a cinnamon stick at the base of the triangle for the "tree trunk."
  • Use the chopped red pepper to decorate the "tree" -- make the red pepper look like the ornaments.
  • Serve with your favorite crackers.
