Ingredients
- 1 cup roasted cocoa nibs
- 1(8-ounce) log fresh goat cheese
- 2 three-finger pinches Black Diamond Flake Salt
- 1 (8-ounce) baguette
Directions
- Spread the cacao nibs in a single layer on a sheet of foil.
- Roll the log of goat cheese carefully in the nibs so that the cheese doesn't stick to your fingers. Once the cheese is well coated, roll the rog with a little more pressure to embed the nibs into the cheese. Place on a serving plate.
- Sprinkle the cheese with salt, allowing the crystals to tumble across the plate.
- Cut the baguette into thin slices and arrange them around the cheese log or place them in a basket to serve alongside.
- To show guests how to serve themselves, cut a round of cheese from the log and place it on a slice of baguette; top with a few of the scattered chunks of Black Diamond Flake salt.
