This was served at a salmon barbecue last weekend. Absolutely delicious - I begged for the recipe.

4 oz goat cheese
4 oz cream cheese
1/4 cup heavy cream
3 T minced fresh chives
2 T minced lemon zest
1 jar sweet piquante peppers such as Peppadews, drained (14 oz)

Combine goat cheese, cream cheese, cream, chives and zest. Transfer filling to a piping bag fitted with a medium star tip and pipe into peppers.

Note: I found Peppadew peppers in the olive bar at my local market. I had trouble piping the filling so ended up stuffing it in with a small spoon. Not much experience in piping!!

DiAnne! this is great! I love goat cheese! Our Wegman's carries peppadews in the

Mediterranean olive bar which is part of the cheese shop. I finally won't have to go on the hunt for an ingredient!

I am going to love these!

RespectLife - I hope you enjoy this. I made a few the other day and added them into a cheese platter. They looked attractive and were a nice change from grapes. I have gotten better at the piping!!!

I agree!

We're going to a huge 4th of July outdoor affair and are the new-bes this year. What to bring has been on my mind of late. I'm so grateful you posted this, OP, as this will be my contribution to the pinic with 100+folks.

I had to look up those peppers. I like them, just didn't know what they were called. I think they would be great with that filling. And along with barbqued salmon. Omg!

There's a restaurant I like that makes these as an appetizer. It makes for a beautiful presentation.
