1 tablespoon apple jelly
1/4 cup dried apricot, chopped
1/4 cup dried sour cherry, chopped
1/4 cup chopped walnuts

Directions:

Place cream cheese on a sheet of plastic wrap; top with a second sheet of plastic wrap. Use a rolling pin to roll cheese to 1/2-inch thickness, approximately an 8-inch by 6-inch rectangle. Remove top sheet of plastic wrap and discard. Spread jelly over cheese; sprinkle with dried fruits. Gently roll into a log, jelly-roll style. Roll log in chopped walnuts and wrap in plastic wrap; refrigerate until ready to serve. Just before serving, sprinkle chives over log. Serve with wheat crackers and fresh fruit.
