Ingredients
- 1/2 lb. cream cheese, softened
- 1 lb. Roquefort cheese (or other strong blue-veined cheese), softened
- 1/2 lb. goat cheese with fig, softened
- 24 red grapes
- 2 teaspoons honey
Directions
- Combine cream cheese, Roquefort cheese, and fig-goat cheese in a mixing bowl and blend well until smooth. Divide mixture into 1-ounce pieces about the size of a large marble. Take a grape and punch it into the middle of the cheese mixture, rolling to cover and forming it into balls.
- Drizzle honey over the cheese balls and skewer before serving.
CHEF’S NOTES:
- These can be made one day ahead of time, covered, and refrigerated. If you can’t find goat cheese with figs, use plain goat cheese with 10 dried figs, finely chopped.
- When you bite into this sweet and savory Roquefort cheese “truffle,” you experience a burst of sweet juice from the red grape nestled inside. Your party guests will be talking about this creation at the office on Monday.
- Serve with a nice Meritage or pale ale.
VARIATIONS:
- Instead of Roquefort cheese you can use goat cheese or port-wine cheese.
