Blue Cheese and Pecan Spread
Absolutely delicious spread (recipe here). I did substitute pecans for the walnuts, because they’re just so much better! The spread would be fantastic in the tea sandwiches, as specified, but was also wonderful on crackers. Would also be good on apples or celery sticks.

It is a “Create Your Own Ice Cream” guide and gives a basic custard recipe, […]
