Measure | Ingredient |
---|---|
⅓ cup | Walnuts; chopped |
2 tablespoons | Granulated sugar |
2 tablespoons | Confectioners sugar |
½ cup | Butter; cut up |
¼ cup | Blue cheese; crumbled |
1¼ cup | All-purpose flour |
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
In the bowl of a food processor, chop together walnuts and sugars. Add butter and blue cheese and blend just a couple of seconds, until a crumbly consistency (don't let it form a ball). Add flour and pulse about 10-20 times. Pat into an 8-inch cake pan. Score with a knife into 8 to 12 wedges. Bake at 325 degrees F for 15 minutes.
Remove from oven, deepen score with a knife, and return to oven. Bake at 325 degrees F for another 15 minutes, or until done. Cool on a rack.
Serve with fresh or poached pears, with a Sauterne.
