French Quarter Cheese

Serves 10 as Hors d'oeuvre.

This is a recipe I've used time and time again, which I found in Very Virginiathe cookbook of the Junior League of Hampton Roads. I add more garlic than the original though.

• oz cream cheese, softened
  
• garlic cloves, minced
  
• T grated onion
  
• c dark brown sugar
  
• tsp Wordestershire sauce
  
• tsp prepared mustard (I like Creole)
  
• c finely chopped pecans
  

Combine cream cheese, garlic, and onion with a fork. Shape into a 6x1-inch disk, place on a serving plate, and refrigerate. Combine remaining ingredients in a saucepan, heating until butter melts. Cover chilled cheese with nut mixture. Wrap and chill. Serve at room temperature with crackers, bread or sturdy crudites.
