Ingredients

1. 3 cups thinly sliced onion
2. 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
3. 1½ cups finely chopped pecans
4. 3 tablespoons minced fresh thyme
5. 1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, softened
6. 24 thin slices pumpernickel bread, slices cut into 4-inch ovals
7. 12 (4-inch) oval slices sharp cheddar cheese
8. 1 (8.5-ounce) jar apple-cranberry chutney

Instructions

1. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook onion in butter until onions are tender and brown, about 12 minutes. In a small bowl, combine the pecans and thyme; set aside.
2. Spread a thin layer of cream cheese on half of the bread ovals. Top with a thin layer of caramelized onions and a slice of cheddar. On the second half of the bread ovals, spread a thin layer of chutney, then sandwich them atop the first slices.
3. Slice each sandwich diagonally. Spread remaining cream cheese on round edges of each sandwich half; roll in pecan mixture.
