In a large bowl with mixer at medium speed, beat cream cheese, cheese spread with pimento and blue cheese until smooth. With spoon, stir in green onions and Worcestershire sauce.

Beginning at the narrows end of cone, carefully press almonds about 1/4" deep into the cheese mixture in rows, making sure that the pointed end of each almond extends at a slight angle. Continue pressing almonds into cheese mixture in rows, with rows slightly over-lapping, until all cheese is covered. Garnish pine cone with pine sprigs. Serve with crackers.
