A couple of weeks ago, my husband and I hosted what is becoming our annual wine and cheese party (menu to follow). The party is a blast – everyone brings a bottle or wine or a favorite cheese, and everyone gets to try a sampling of everything.
Anyway, slightly bored with the usual crackers and fresh bread for serving, these toast points are a nice change, and super easy to make. While I ate both soft and hard cheeses on the, they’re especially great for soft, spreadable cheeses such as goat cheese.
