Blue Cheese Coins image

Adapted from Southern Thanksgiving 2015. We love these little appetizers, even those of us who don't particularly like blue cheese. They are good with or without the raspberry preserves. These can be made ahead and kept in a airtight container for 5 days. Or make to the point of the rolled logs wrapped in parchment or waxed paper, and seal in a freezer zipper bag, and freeze for up to 2 weeks.

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 cups All purpose flour
2 cups Blue Cheese, crumbled
3/4 cup Butter, unsalted, cold, cubed
1 teaspoon Salt, kosher
1/4 teaspoon Black Pepper, groung
1/4 cup Milk, whole

Steps:

  • If making for now, preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • In a food processor, pulse flour, blue cheese, butter, salt, and pepper until well combined.
  • Turn on processor, add mild in a slow steady stream until dough forms. If necessary, use hands to finish mixing into a dough consistency.
  • Divide in half. Roll each half into a log about 3/4" in diameter. Wrap in parchment or waxed paper. Tamp each end and twist paper to seal. Freeze until firm, about 2 hours. *Note, for later use, seal logs inside a freezer zipper bag for up to 2 weeks.
  • Take logs from freezer one at a time. Slice into rounds about 1/8" thick. Place on baking sheet 1" apart.
  • Bake in 350 degree oven until golden around the edges, about 18-20 minutes, depending on size and thickness.
  • Let cool completely on wire racks. *Note, can seal in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
