Fruity Cheese Log. Recipe help please

I used to have a recipe for a cheese log made from cream cheese and sour cream which had dried cranberries and apricots, ginger, almonds (I think) and other stuff in it. Now I can't find it.

Can anyone help me out please?

Place cream cheese, sour cream and relish in a food processor and pulse until smooth. Add grated cheese and pulse to combine.

Transfer mixture to a large bowl and stir in apricots, cranberries, ginger and spring onion.

Shape mixture into 1-2 logs and wrap firmly in plastic wrap (if mixture is too soft to handle, chill it a little first, or turn it out onto the plastic wrap and use this to help you shape the logs as you wrap them).

Chill for at least 1 hour. Unwrap logs and sprinkle with toasted almonds. Serve on a platter with plain crackers. Make ahead Logs will keep for at least 3-4 days in the refrigerator. Makes about 2 cups or 2 medium logs -
