Instructions

Make the goat cheese truffles:

  • In a shallow bowl, combine the remaining pecans, dried cranberries, and parsley.
  • Divide the cheese mixture into thirds. Form 6 balls from each third. Roll the balls in the pecan mixture to coat completely. Refrigerate for 1 hour.

Assemble the skewers in the following order:

  • First add 1 slice of prosciutto (gathered into a ruffle/stack) to a skewer, followed by 1 melon ball and 1 goat cheese truffle. Repeat using all the skewers. Serve immediately.
