📝 Preparation Steps

Chill

Cover and refrigerate until chilled (at least ⏱️ 1 hour or up to 1 day). Once chilled, uncover and invert the wreath onto a serving platter. Use a spatula to smooth the edges.

Pulse

Place almonds and sun-dried tomatoes in the bowl of a food processor and pulse a few times until you have crumbs. Transfer to a shallow bowl with the finely chopped parsley and mix to combine.

Cover

Sprinkle the mixture all over the cheese mold, pressing gently to adhere.

Serve

Let it sit at room temperature for about ⏱️ 15-20 minutes before serving so it can soften up a bit. Serve with crackers and/or crostini.
