Walnuts and blue cheese blend deliciously in these little savory cookies. Pour your favorite wine, and welcome your friends over. Ingredients:
2 (4-ounce) packages crumbled blue cheese, softened |
1/2 cup butter, softened |
1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour |
1/3 cup toasted, ground walnuts |
1 egg white, beaten |
tiny fresh herb sprigs (we tested with rosemary, thyme, and sage) |
Directions:
1. Beat cheese and butter at medium speed with an electric mixer until creamy. Add flour and nuts; beat until blended. 2. Shape dough into 2 (8 ) logs. Wrap logs in wax paper, and chill 2 hours or until firm. Cut into 1/4 -thick slices, and place on lightly greased baking sheets. Brush lightly with beaten egg white. Press herb sprigs firmly into each slice. 3. Bake at 350° for 12 to 15 minutes or until golden. Cool 1 minute on baking sheets; remove to wire racks to cool completely. 4. Make-Ahead Tip: You can chill logs of dough overnight, and slice and bake the next day. |
