I bought pickled cherry peppers (approx 24) from the olive bar at Whole Foods. I know that lots of gourmet food stores carry these. They are sweet and slightly spicy which goes great with the goat cheese mousse.
For the mousse you need the following:
1 pastry bag (small tip required) or a ziplock
3 oz goat cheese
3 0z heavy cream
1 tbs chives sliced thin
1 tsp thyme fresh leaves
sea salt
black pepper
1. put everything but the cream into your kitchen aid fitted with the paddle attachment
2. mix on low until cheese is softened
3. remove contents from bowl
4. put cream into mixing bowl with the whip attachment
5. whip until it has stiff peaks
6. fold the goat cheese mix into the whip cream with a spatula
7. fill pastry bag or ziplock (is using ziplock, just cut the corner off making a hole the size of the end of your pinky finger)
8. fill peppers with mixture
9. i garnished the finished platter with olive oil and fresh parsley
