Pecan-crusted Goat Cheese Log

• 1/4 cup bourbon
• 1/4 cup water
• 3 dried peach halves (about 2 ounces), coarsely chopped
• 1/2 cup toasted pecans
• 2 teaspoons Cajun seasoning
• 1 medium log fresh goat cheese (about 11 ounces)

1. Warm the bourbon and water in a small saucepan, add the peaches, and set aside until plump, about 15 minutes.
2. Put the toasted pecans and Cajun seasoning in a mini chopper and pulse until the nuts are finely ground but not pasty.
3. Spread the nut mixture on a large plate.
4. Roll the goat cheese in the mixture, pressing firmly to coat the whole log generously.
5. Slice the cheese into rounds and arrange on a platter.
6. Top with the chopped peaches and juices.
