Fig and Gorgonzola Savouries (Thumbprints),Modified recipe by TheRunawaySpoon, on the Food52 blog. These delicate, crumbly little thumbprints are the perfect combination of sweet and savory, as their names suggests — they’re like a great cheese plate all wrapped into one crunchy little morsel. TheRunawaySpoon’s simple food processor dough yields tender, buttery coins flecked with blue cheese and black pepper. A good quality fig jam is crucial here; if you can’t find it, quince or pear jam would also work well,I cant believe how few reviews this recipe has. It is absolutely amazing! Four ingredients and a few minutes work and you end up with absolutely delicious and unique appetizers. I made these today as part of a goodriddance to 2020 get together with another couple (outside and socially distant). A few of the end pieces didnt look so good so my husband and I tried them. Wow! I had to stop myself from eating half of them myself. I think if you are in a hurry you can just put spoonfuls of dough on a sprayed cookie sheet and flatten them a bit. I cooked mine for 15-20 minutes. Used blue cheese crumbles from Trader Joes. Make these! You wont be sorry.,My family doesn’t like gorgonzola cheese. What can I substitute for it?
