Baked cheese

We went to friends for dinner tonight and, having been asked to bring something for pre-dinner nibbles, decided to try out our new cheese baker (hubby went shopping by himself!). I scored the top of the cheese, added walnuts and slivered almonds and some cubes and slices of pear and hey presto, cheese, fruit and nut dip! We had carrot and pear sticks and two different sorts of crackers to accompany it. It went down very well.
