2 cartons mascarpone cheese at room temperature (this is key)
1 big wedge good gorgonzola cheese
crushed walnuts, about a cup. Also good to toast walnuts first (just on pan at 350 for about 10 min)
2 tablespoons honey

Steps:

In a bowl stir the honey with mascarpone. Then in a very small bowl-shaped dish spray the sides with cooking spray (any size just small and a little deep, even a small but deep mixing bowl will work. I sometimes use my cereal bowl.). Then line with saran wrap covering all sides, be sure to push the saran wrap into all corners. Spray again with cooking spray. Line the sides and bottom with mascarpone mixture, about ¼" thick. Cut gorgonzola into slices about ¼" thick and line the bottom with slices. Then layer ¼" mascarpone, then more gorgonzola. Keep layering until you reach the top. Top layer should be mascarpone. Tightly tightly tightly seal with saran wrap, foil, etc. Best to refrigerate for a few hours until mascarpone is hardened. To serve it just tip it over onto a serving plate and remove the saran wrap (hopefully the cooking spray made it easy to remove). Push crushed walnuts on sides and top to cover up the mess. Serve with your favorite crackers. You will be a HUGE HIT at any gathering with this yummy treat. If anyone makes this please send me an email ( [email protected]) to let me know how it turned out...and if you'd do anything different. Thanks!Kristina
