From:
"Nuts"
Current Rating: rating pending
Yields about 48 balls
Ingredients
-
2 cups Diamond Pecan Chips
-
8 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
-
4 ounces Gorgonzola or other blue cheese, at room temperature
-
2 tablespoons whipping cream, or half-and-half, or milk
-
½ pound (about 1 ¼ cups) small seedless red or green grapes, rinsed and dried well
Directions
Preheat oven to 350. Spread pecan chips on a baking sheet or in a shallow pan. Bake, stirring once or twice, until lightly browned and fragrant, 5 to 10 minutes. Let cool.
In a medium bowl, beat cream cheese, Gorgonzola, and cream with an electric mixer until smooth, 2 to 3 minutes. Completely cover each grape with about 1 teaspoon cheese mixture; repeat with remaining cheese and grapes. (If making in advance, refrigerate airtight up to 3 days.) Roll each grape-cheese ball in pecan chips until well coated.
Yields about 48 balls
