Yield: 8-10

Author: Adriannexo

Prep time: 15 MinTotal time: 15 Min

Ingredients

• 3 oz cream cheese
• 6 oz block cheddar cheese, finely shredded
• 1/4 tsp paprika
• 1/8 tsp onion powder
• 1/8 tsp celery salt
• 1/8 tsp garlic powder
• a few springs of fresh curly parsley
• Crackers for serving

Instructions

1. Using a fork, combine all of the ingredients (except the parsley and crackers) in a large bowl until somewhat combined. Then use your hands to get the cheese mixture combined until smooth.
2. Divide the cheese into 5-6 sections (or however many “carrots” you want to create). Using your hands, form each section into a carrot shape. Use a knife to add details like ridges and gashes.
3. Arrange the cheese carrots on a platter. Add sprigs of curly parsley into the ends to create carrot tops.
4. Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate until ready.
