Ingredients

  • 2/3 cup finely chopped walnuts
  • 6 ounces crumbled Cabrales (Spanish blue cheese), Roquefort or Gorgonzola may be substituted
  • 4 ounces cream cheese
  • 20 loose seedless red grapes (about 1/4 pound with stems)

Directions

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. On a sheet pan spread out the walnuts and toast in the oven for 7 to 9 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool.

In a bowl with an electric mixer, cream together the blue cheese and the cream cheese until smooth. Put one tablespoon of the cheese mixture in the palm of one hand and in it roll a grape, shaping the mixture around the grape to coat. Cover the remaining grapes and chill on a sheet pan for 15 minutes. Roll the cheese-coated grapes in the walnut mixture to cover completely and chill for 30 minutes or until coating is firm. Using a sharp knife cut grapes into halves.

    Good Flavors

    Rated: 4 stars out of 5
    These were a hit. Even people who don't like blue cheese enjoyed them. It's a good balance of flavors, the sweetness of the... grapesand the mildness of the walnuts cut the strong blue cheese flavor.Read more

    yummy & refreshing

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    I have made these 5 times since I found the recipe. I think they are very refreshing on a hot day- I keep them in the fridge... as a snack for a couple of days.Read more

    love these

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    I have served these at many a wine tasting party and used different "strengths" of blue cheese and different nuts (walnuts... are still my favorite). I don't cut them in half, just put them in a bowl with toothpicks. Then you really don't know what to expect inside, then it's an explosion of taste and texture.Read more

    This one was just o.k. A gooey mess to prepare, and no one went back for seconds at my party.

    Walnut and Blue Cheese Grapes

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    I have made these grapes for many parties and got the recipe from a friend. I use pistacios instead of walnuts and leave the... grapes whole so when you put them on a platter you can position them to look like a cluster of grapes. The green pistacios make them look like green grapes.Read more
