1In a small mixing bowl combine diced pecans, cranberries and chives.
2In a large mixing bowl add cream cheese & cheddar, then use a spatula to combine with HALF of the pecan mix (save the rest to coat the outside).
3Add the mix to a large sheet of cling film and mould into a log shape, using the cling film to tightly contain it. Pop in the fridge until ready to serve.
4When ready to serve, spread the second half of your pecan mix on a chopping board.
5Unwrap the cheese log and coat all over with the pecan mix.
6Serve on a board with crackers.
