Stilton & Almond Crisps

A good way to use up that last piece of Stilton. I also use the white Stilton with apricots.

Preparation
20 mins
Cooking
10-15 mins

Ingredients

  • 4oz Softened Butter
  • 4oz Stilton
  • 4oz Plain Flour
  • 1 Beaten Egg
  • 2oz Chopped Almonds
  • Few drops of Tabasco Sauce
  • Sesame Seeds (optional)

Method

  1. Beat together the butter and Stilton.
  2. Add Tabasco sauce (careful - its very hot).
  3. Add flour and nuts and work together until a dough is formed.
  4. Roll into a thick sausage and chill.
  5. Well grease a baking tray, cut dough into slices about a quarter of an inch thick and place on tray. Brush over with beaten egg and scatter with sesame seeds.
  6. Bake for 10-15 mins at Gas 5, 375F, 190C or until golden brown. Cool and store in a tin. Serve with cheese or pate.
