Categories     Cheese

Number Of Ingredients 7

3/4 cup pecans, toasted and finely chopped
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup crumbed blue cheese (2 ounces)
Bottled hot pepper sauce

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl stir together the pecans, flour, salt and pepper. Using a wooden spoon, stir butter and blue cheese into flour mixture until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in hot pepper sauce. Shape dough into a ball; knead until smooth. Divide dough in half. On parchment or waxed paper, shape each dough half into a 7-inch long log.* Wrap in the parchment paper. Freeze for 30 minutes or until firm. Cut each log into slices, about 1/4-inch thick. Place slices about 1-inch apart on silicone baking mat (Silpat®)-lined baking sheets. Bake in a 350° F oven for 10 to 12 minutes or until edges are turning brown. Transfer to wire racks to cool. Makes about 4 dozen. * To get perfectly round and uniformly sized wafers, fold the parchment paper over the dough in half, with the seam facing you. Using a dough scraper or your hands, push the dough against the back side of the parchment paper until it is in the shape of a log. Continue pushing and shaping until the log is the desired size, and is uniformly round. MAKE-AHEAD: To store, cool wafers completely. Place in a covered container and refrigerate for up to 1 week, or freeze for up to 1 month. Thaw frozen wafers in the refrigerator before serving.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the quality of your ingredients, the better your wafers will taste. Look for blue cheese that is sharp and flavorful, and use unsalted butter so that you can control the amount of salt in the wafers.
  • Chill the dough before baking: This will help the wafers to hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much in the oven.
  • Bake the wafers until they are golden brown: This will ensure that they are crispy and flavorful.
  • Let the wafers cool completely before serving: This will help them to set and firm up.

Conclusion:

Blue cheese wafers are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. They are crispy, flavorful, and addictive. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a snack that your guests will love. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy appetizer, give blue cheese wafers a try.
