Equipment
- Wood Serving Tray
Ingredients
- 1 lb. Cooper® Sharp White Pasteurized Process American Cheese
- 1 cup Kalamata Olives
- 1/3 lb Capicola
- 1/3 lb salami
- 1/3 lb Sopressata
- 1 cup dates
- 1 cup almonds
- 1 cup jumbo stuffed green olives
- 1/4 cup cranberries
- 6 Rosemary sprigs
- 6 Sage sprigs
Instructions
- Prepare your wood tray by washing and drying it.
- Start out by lining the first level with the sage leaves to make the base.
- Then, add about 1/2 lb of Cooper Sharp White cubes next. As you go up to the next tier you want to taper off the ingredients to form the triangle of the tree.
- Next up, is a layer of Kalamata Olives, folded salami, jumbo stuffed green olives, and dates.
- Then, I added almond, Capicola, more Cooper Sharp White cubes, and Sopressata.
- For the top, I added a star made of cheese. I was going to cut it out, but it looked cute in the cutter.
- The last step was to line the triangle tree shape with fresh Rosemary followed by some cranberries scattered over the cheese.
