ANGEL OF DEATH CHEESE BALL | |
This was served at a company Halloween party (hence Angel of Death name). The original recipe used Ricotta instead of cream cheese, Gorgonzola instead of Blue cheese and 1 cup whipping cream instead of milk. I have never fixed it with the original ingredients. 1 large garlic, separated into cloves 1 (8 oz.) pkg. cream cheese, at room temperature 4 oz. blue cheese, crumbled, at room temperature milk or cream, to thin if needed 3/4 tsp. salt 2 fresh sage leaves 1/3 cup walnuts, finely chopped Add garlic to small saucepan of boiling water and cook until garlic is tender and easily pierced with a knife, about 15 to 20 minutes. Drain well. Transfer to garlic press in batches and mince. Measure 2 tablespoons and set aside. Beat cream cheese in medium bowl until softened. Add blue cheese and continue mixing until smooth. Add milk or cream if needed to thin. Add salt and reserved garlic. Dampen 12x18-inch piece of cheesecloth and wring dry. Arrange 2 sage leaves bottom side up in the center. Spoon cheese mixture over leaves, forming a loose ball. Tie ends of cloth together, pressing cheese mixture gently into shape. Transfer to cheesecloth lined strainer and set strainer over bowl. Refrigerate 24 hours or up to 4 days. Unmold cheese onto platter. Press chopped walnuts over entire surface. Refrigerate. Let stand at room temperature for 1 hour before serving. Accompany with an assortment of crackers. Submitted by: Dona |
