Intense flavours abound in this delicious cheese spread - the pungent gorgonzola combined with the delicate anisette of the Sambuca and the crunchy nuttiness of the pine nuts - this begs to be spread on a crisp, juicy wedge of pear or apple! This needs to be refrigerated for atleast 2 hours before serving.

1/2 lb gorgonzola or 1/2 lb roquefort cheese, crumbled
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
1 1/2 tablespoons sambuca liqueur
1 cup pine nuts or 1 cup sliced almonds, toasted until golden
cracker
pear, wedges
apple, wedges
Directions:
1. Combine everything but nuts in food processor and process 1 minute.
2. Spoon into a small bowl, cover and refrigerate for atleast 2 hours.
3. Shape cold cheese mixture into a ball, roll in toasted nuts, refrigerate until serving time.
4. Serve with assorted crackers and pear and apple wedges.
