Default baked goat cheese dip

had a small get together last night and this one is a winner!! i'm not going to post a recipe unless it gets 5 stars.

here is a good one. topped with fresh cherry tomatoes.


"Baked Goat Cheese Dip"

Ingredients


  • 1 10 -ounce log goat cheese, at room temperature


  • 4 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature


  • 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese


  • 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for brushing


  • Freshly ground pepper


  • 8 small cocktail tomatoes (about 10 ounces), quartered


  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives


  • 2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar


  • 1 clove garlic, finely chopped


  • Kosher salt


  • Toasted baguette slices, for serving


Directions
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Combine the goat cheese, cream cheese, parmesan and 2 tablespoons olive oil in a food processor and season with pepper; puree until smooth. Brush a 1-quart baking dish with olive oil, then spread the cheese mixture in the dish, mounding it slightly higher around the edge than in the middle. Bake until golden and heated through, about 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, combine the tomatoes, chives, vinegar, garlic, the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl. Spoon the tomato mixture on top of the dip. Serve with baguette slices.
