     Title: Hattie's Goat Cheese Torta With Pesto And Sun-Dried Tomat
Categories: Appetizers, Cheese
     Yield: 20 Servings

     6 oz Goat cheese
     4 oz Cream cheese
     8 cl Garlic; or more, peeled,
          -smushed, and chopped
   1/2 c  Pesto; or more
   1/2 c  Oil-packed sun-dried
          -tomatoes; chopped up fine
     1 ts Marinade from tomatoes; up
          -to 2 ts
          Salt (optional)
          Black pepper (optional)
          Fresh herb sprigs (thyme,
          -oregano, parsley, rosemary)
          Baguetts; sliced

 This is a killer party item. My friends stand around and inhale this
 stuff. If there's any leftover, it's great the next day. I usually
 make my own pesto but the stuff you can buy in the refrigerator bin
 at the grocery store is okay, too.

 Decorate with fresh herbs, such as branches of thyme, oregano,
 rosemary, parsley, and sliced baguettes. Mix goat cheese and cream
 cheese, add the garlic. Check the taste. Add salt and black pepper if
 you want.

 Line a small glass bowl (about 2 to 3 cups) with plastic wrap. Put
 about 1/3 of the goat cheese mix into the bowl. Top this with the
 pesto. Put another 1/3 of the goat cheese mix on top of this. Put the
 sundried tomatoes on this. Top with the rest of the cheese. Put
 plastic wrap over the top of this. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours,
 and up to four days.

 To serve, invert bowl on a serving dish. Carefully remove the plastic
 wrap. Decorate with herbaceous materials. Serve with baguettes. Keep
 out of the way of the devouring mob.
