• Combine spreadable cheddar cheese with chopped walnuts.
• Spread the cheese mixture on a slice of salami, top with another salami slice.
• Spread the mixture on that slice and top with a third slice of salami.
• Repeat, building stacks with the remaining cheese mixture and salami.
• Wrap the layered meat stacks in foil and freeze for about 1 hour.
• Remove the stacks from the freezer and cut each stack into 4 equal wedges.
• Attach a cocktail onion to each salami wedge with a cellophane-tipped toothpick. Do-Ahead Note: Wrap the uncut salami stacks securely in foil, then freeze. Cut into wedges and garnish, then refrigerate or serve.
