Chipotle apricot cream cheese bites

Step 1

Arrange the crackers in a single layer on a serving platter.

Step 2

Cut the cream cheese into 14 pieces, then roll each piece into a ball.

Step 3

Add the pecan pieces to a shallow bowl, then roll the cream cheese balls in the pecans to cover completely, pressing the nuts into the cream cheese. Place each ball on top of a cracker.

Step 4

In a small bowl, add the apricot jam. Finely chop the chipotle peppers, then add to the jam and stir to incorporate.

Step 5

Spoon the chipotle-apricot jelly on top of each cream cheese ball. If desired, garnish with a few rosemary leaves.

Step 6

Serve immediately.

Step 7

Enjoy!
