You may have seen curated cheese plates offered in restaurants as a way to end a fancy meal, but what about a cheese that\u2019s sweet enough to function as dessert on its own?<\/p>\n

Westfield Farm<\/a>‘s Chocolate Capri<\/a>, a soft goat cheese densely flavored with cocoa, strikes the perfect note between sweet and tangy: it\u2019s essentially a spreadable chocolate truffle\u2014and that\u2019s only the beginning.<\/p>\n

While some ch\u00e8vre traditionalists might balk at the idea, a little out-of-the-box thinking is all that stands between you and your new favorite dessert. Served with a fruity counterpart, it\u2019s an unforgettable and unique addition to any cheeseboard.<\/p>\n

Tart raspberry is a classic match for the Chocolate Capri\u2019s rich flavor, and Bonnie\u2019s Jams Raspberry Lime Rickey<\/a> does not disappoint. The jam\u2019s zingy lime notes play well with the cheese\u2019s natural tanginess, while Raspberry highlights the depth of cocoa-enhanced sweetness. Served with biscotti or madelines, this is a dessert that pulls out all the stops.<\/p>\n

For the even more adventurous tasters (What, chocolate cheese wasn\u2019t enough for you?), Bonnie\u2019s Red Pepper Jelly<\/a> is an unexpected twist on Mexican-style chocolate flavor. While the traditional cocoa recipe relies on chipotle peppers for heat, fresh haba\u00f1eros in the Jelly are used instead for a sweet-spicy flavor that is perfectly mellowed by the creamy ch\u00e8vre.<\/p>\n
