Start by finely chopping the dried cranberries and pecans.
Add dried parsley, salt, and pepper to the chopped cranberries and pecan mix.
Divide goat cheese into 16 equal parts and roll into balls. Once you have formed balls with the goat cheese, roll them in the cranberry and pecan crumb mixture.
Lastly, skewer each cheese ball with a pretzel stick or rosemary sprig for an extra festive touch.
