Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 20 pieces Seedless red or green grapes
- 100 grams Blue cheese
- 50 grams Cream cheese
- 50 grams Pistachios (shelled, finely chopped)
- 50 grams Walnuts (finely chopped)
- 20 pieces Toothpicks or small skewers
Instructions
Wash the grapes thoroughly and pat them dry using a clean kitchen towel or paper towel.
In a medium bowl, combine the blue cheese and cream cheese. Use a fork or hand mixer to blend them together until smooth and creamy.
Place the chopped pistachios and walnuts on a large plate or shallow dish, mixing them together to create a nut coating.
Take one grape at a time and use a small spatula or a spoon to evenly coat it with the blue cheese mixture.
Roll the coated grape in the nut mixture, ensuring it is fully covered with the chopped nuts.
Repeat the process with the remaining grapes, blue cheese mixture, and nuts.
Insert a toothpick or small skewer into each finished grape for easy serving.
Arrange the prepared grapes on a serving platter and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes to allow the coating to set.
Serve chilled and enjoy this delightful, bite-sized appetizer!
