Makes 1 cup
Ingredients:
slices crusty multigrain bread (or whatever your favorite bread is), toasted or your favorite crackers
Cheese Spread:
½ cup mascarpone cheese
½ cup strong soft cheese (the recipe called for gorgonzola dolcelatte, which I couldn’t find so I bought some cream cheese spread with rum and hazelnuts)

Directions:
1. In a medium bowl, combine all the cheese topping ingredients and blend well.
