Shopping List
- 1/3 cup chopped walnuts, toasted slightly and seasoned with salt and pepper
- 4 ounces blue cheese
- 2-3 tbsp of heavy whipping cream
- 4 ounces raspberry preserves
- 24 mini toasts or crostini
Method
- Toast the walnuts in a small pan over medium low heat. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and toast until you smell the nuttiness, about 3-5 minutes. Make sure to watch the pan and lower the heat so the walnuts do not burn.
- Prepare the blue cheese by combining the blue cheese and 1 tbsp of the whipping cream in a bowl.
- Using a hand mixer, whip the blue cheese and whipping cream for about 1-2 minutes. Add more whipping cream as needed to get a light and airy whipped blue cheese.
- Place about 1 tsp of preserves on each toast or crostini. Note, depending on size of crostini, you may want to increase the amount of preserves. I use these mini toasts. Just make sure the toast or crostini is covered with jam.
- Place a large dollop of the whipped blue cheese on top. ofthe preserves. About 2-3 tsp.
- Sprinkle each toast with the toasted walnuts.
- That’s it! Enjoy!
