Grape Truffles Grape And Bleu Cheese

Features:
    Cuisine:

    I have made these as written dozens of times, with both red and white grapes, either are great. Pick the grapes that are sweet and firm. To make one day ahead, envelope the grapes in the blu/crm cheese mixture then cover and refrigerate. Roll in the nuts an hour or so before serving. If there are any leftovers, cut in half and put in a salad the next day.

    Grape Truffles (Grape and Bleu Cheese), Adapted from a recipe from Tyler Florence This is a sophisticated-looking appetizer just bursting with flavor It’s a bit time consuming to make, but worth it When I made it, I ran out of ground nuts, yet still had cheese left over I chopped up a few grapes, and sprinkled some chopped walnut pieces in the cheese and mixed it up for a nice bleu cheese spread, as a bonus Prep and cook time includes chilling time , I have made these as written dozens of times, with both red and white grapes, either are great Pick the grapes that are sweet and firm To make one day ahead, envelope the grapes in the blu/crm cheese mixture then cover and refrigerate Roll in the nuts an hour or so before serving If there are any leftovers, cut in half and put in a salad the next day , Beauties! I wonder what was the unadapted version like to start with I thought some of the blue cheese flavor was lost, maybe with little too much cream cheese perhaps, for our tastes Will try with less of that next time, but over all a real treat!
