Mardi Gras Platter

At our shower in Baton Rouge, we were gifted a festive platter for Mardi Gras season:

I love it! Especially the spreaders that it came with:

Recently, I used it to serve an easy appetizer for friends. All you do is take cream cheese and cover it with Raspberry Chipotle Marinade (my favorite is the brand from HEB). Then serve with little crackers.

Doesn't it look like the Joker from Batman?

Love the appetizer! Love the platter! But probably not together.
