About The Recipe
I have made a lot of different types of cheese/charcuterie boards in my day. It’s a staple dinner around my house, but this one is my hands down favorite!
Seriously, can it get better than this? There’s nothing not to love about this board. Filled with your favorite cheeses, fresh berries, homemade sugar cookies, lots of chocolate, nuts, and even some fresh flowers just to jazz things up a bit.
It’s truly a perfect combo of sweet and savory, and it makes for a delicious dessert that also doubles as great way to impress!
Ingredients
- Strawberries
- Blueberries
- Blackberries
- Cherries
- Almonds
- Cashews
- Cheeses (I chose brie, parmesan, white cheddar, and goat cheese)
- Sweetened coconut strips
- Homemade sugar cookies
- Cinnamon Raisin Almond Cookie Thins (or, you can use cinnamon walnut bread)
- Oh, and of course, lots of chocolate!
Instructions
I meticulously thought about every ingredient on this board to make sure it pairs well with chocolate because… well, the whole point of this is chocolate!
Seriously, I love dark chocolate and I will always use it, but you can easily use milk or white. Just whatever you prefer! I just recommend that maybe you buy a a chocolate or two that has maybe some sea salt, nuts, dried fruits, or something to spice things up.
Now, how to assemble this board. The trick is, is to have fun! Yes, I know how silly that sounds but just play around. Not everything has to be compartmented away into a little section or a little bowl. Play with your food! There is absolutely no wrong way to make this board.
Expert Tips
- If you use fresh flowers, make sure they are cleaned and don’t touch the food. You can also use edible flowers!
- All of these measurements are really a suggestion. If you feel like something is too much or too little, feel free to change it!
- Having a side of honey can really make all the difference. Sometimes, fruit is too sour to enjoy without a sweetener so try adding a little dab of honey! It also pairs with cheese so, win-win.
