Ingredients

  • 2/3 cup finely chopped walnuts
  • 6 ounces crumbled Cabrales (Spanish blue cheese), Roquefort or Gorgonzola may be substituted
  • 4 ounces cream cheese
  • 20 loose seedless red grapes (about 1/4 pound with stems)

Method

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. On a sheet pan spread out the walnuts and toast in the oven for 7 to 9 minutes.
  • Remove from oven and allow to cool.
  • In a bowl with an electric mixer, cream together the blue cheese and the cream cheese until smooth.
  • Put one tablespoon of the cheese mixture in the palm of one hand and in it roll a grape, shaping the mixture around the grape to coat.
  • Cover the remaining grapes and chill on a sheet pan for 15 minutes.
  • Roll the cheese-coated grapes in the walnut mixture to cover completely and chill for 30 minutes or until coating is firm.
  • Using a sharp knife cut grapes into halves.
