Christmas Tree Cheese Platter

Ingredients

  • 1 cup Colby Jack cheese, cubed
  • 1 cup Gouda cheese, cubed
  • 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes
  • Fresh rosemary sprigs for garnish

Instructions

  • Cut the Colby Jack and Gouda cheeses into small, bite-sized cubes. Then wash the cherry tomatoes and set them aside.
  • Grab a large platter, ideally shaped like a Christmas tree (or use any large platter and create a tree shape with the ingredients).
  • Start at the top of the tree with a layer of Gouda cheese cubes.
  • Directly beneath the Gouda, add a layer of cherry tomatoes.
  • Follow with a layer of Colby Jack cheese cubes, continuing to build the tree shape as you move downward.
  • Tuck fresh rosemary sprigs under the Colby Jack layer for a festive, greenery effect.
  • Continue the pattern: Gouda cheese, cherry tomatoes, Colby Jack cheese, and rosemary sprigs until you reach the bottom.
  • Finish off the tree with an extra touch of fresh rosemary at the base for that holiday flair!
