For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a tablespoon of finely chopped fresh parsley or chives to the cheese mixture. If you prefer a sharper flavor, use extra sharp cheddar cheese. The raspberry preserves can be substituted with another flavor, such as apricot or fig, depending on your preference. For a festive touch, garnish the cheese ring with fresh raspberries and mint leaves before serving. The cheese ring can be prepared up to 24 hours in advance. Just add the raspberry preserves and crackers right before serving to prevent them from getting soggy.
