# Needed ingredients:
→ Cheese Filling
01 - 8 oz cream cheese, softened
02 - 1 cup shredded mild cheddar cheese
03 - 1/4 cup sour cream
04 - 1/2 tsp garlic powder
05 - 1/2 tsp onion powder
06 - 1/4 tsp salt
07 - Few drops orange food coloring, optional
→ Assembly
08 - 12 large thin round crackers
09 - Fresh parsley or chives for garnish
10 - 1 tbsp melted butter, optional
# How to make it:
01 - In a medium bowl, combine softened cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, sour cream, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt. Mix thoroughly until smooth and well blended.
02 - If desired, add a few drops of orange food coloring and mix until the cheese blend is evenly colored to resemble carrot filling.
03 - Place the cheese filling into a piping bag or a zip-top bag with a corner snipped off for easy dispensing.
04 - Gently warm the crackers for 10 to 15 seconds in the microwave to make them more pliable, if needed for easier shaping.
05 - Roll each cracker into a cone shape and seal the edge with a small amount of melted butter or by pressing gently. Allow to cool and set the shape.
06 - Pipe the cheese mixture into each cone until filled to the brim.
07 - Insert a small bunch of fresh parsley or a few chive stems into the open end of each cone to resemble carrot green tops.
08 - Arrange on a serving platter and serve immediately, or refrigerate until ready to serve.
