16.5 oz. packageRondelé® Président® Garlic & Herbs(Or any spreadable herb cheese!)
18round crackers
2tablespoonoil
1mediumyellow onion
2-3mediumgarlic cloves
2-3sprigs fresh thyme
Instructions
Slice your onion thinly and mince your garlic. Add both to a saucepan with olive oil along with your thyme sprigs and simmer over low heat for 20-30 minutes. (The thyme leaves will fall off the stem.)*Keep it on low as you do not want to burn your onions or garlic!
In the meantime, add your Rondelé® cheese spread into a piping bag with a wide tip. If you don't have a piping bag, you can use a plastic sandwich baggie and snip off the corner so it is about the size of a quarter.
Once your onions are caramelized and golden brown, you can remove the thyme sprigs and transfer your onions and garlic to a small bowl. Let chill in the fridge. (This can be done in advance.) When your caramelized onions have cooled, you can start assembling your crackers.
Using your bag, pipe a large dollop of cheese spread onto each cracker and then, using a fork, top the cheese with some of the caramelized onions. Finish with a few thyme leaves and serve!
Notes
These crackers can be made in advance! You can use any of Président brand spreadable cheeses such as their Président Creamy Brie with Truffles.
