Grape Truffles (Grape And Bleu Cheese)
- 1 bunch seedless white grapes, washed and dried (about 1 1/2 pounds)
- 4 ounces cream cheese or 4 ounces neufchatel cheese, softened
- 8 ounces blue cheese, softened
- 3 tablespoons port wine
- 1 cup ground nuts (pistachios, preferably)
- Mash the cream and bleu cheese in a bowl until they are combined well.
- Add the port.
- Mix until all ingredients are very well combined.
- Chill the cheese mixture for about an hour or two.
- Using a regular spoon, scoop some cheese into the bowl of the spoon and using a grape, scrape the cheese out of the spoon.
- Press the cheese around the grape and roll in your hands to completely cover it well.
- Roll the cheese-covered grape in the ground nuts.
- Continue with remaining grapes.
- Chill until ready to serve.
- Note: if you have leftover cheese, you can mix it with a few chopped nuts and some chopped grapes to make a delicious spread, too.
