Cut each pita bread into eight 2-inch rounds with a biscuit or cookie cutter and split each round in two. Arrange on baking sheet and bake on center rack for 6 to 8 minutes, or until crisp and toasted.

Adjust heat to broil. Top each toasted pita round with ½ teaspoon whole berry cranberry sauce (or chutney) and top with grated Cabot Horseradish Cheddar (or Cabot Sharp Cheddar), dividing it evenly among the pita rounds.

Broil, carefully monitoring and rotating as necessary, for 30 seconds to 3 minutes, or until cheese is evenly melted. Cool slightly before serving.
