Harvest Canapés with Chipotle Cheese Topping

Vegetarian Times Issue: October 1, 2008   p.65

A pumpkin-shaped cookie cutter gives these hors d’oeuvres a harvest holiday feel. Try other shapes as well, but don’t use ones that have too many small edges or angles, which can make spreading the cheese topping difficult.

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Place garlic and oil in small baking dish or ramekin. Cover with foil, and bake 20 minutes, or until garlic is softened. Transfer to small bowl, and mash with chipotle. Mix in cream cheese, and season with salt and pepper.

2. Toast bread until crispy on both sides. Cut into decorative Halloween shapes, or use a 2-inch round cookie cutter to get 3 pieces per slice. Spread with cream cheese mixture; garnish each with radish slices and 2 crisscrossed chives.
