Ingredients
. 1 bar (8 ounces) cream cheese, room temperature
. 1 cup coarsely grated sharp white cheddar (4 ounces)
. 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
. 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
. Coarse salt and ground pepper
. 1 cup shelled unsalted pistachios, coarsely chopped

Directions

. Meanwhile, in a medium skillet, toast pistachios over medium, stirring frequently, until fragrant and golden, about 7 minutes. Transfer to a plate; let cool.
Transfer cheese mixture to a piece of waxed paper; using paper, shape into a 6-inch-long log. Cover with pistachios, pressing to adhere. Wrap log in a fresh piece of waxed paper; chill until firm, 1 to 2 hours (or up to 1 day). Serve with crackers.
