Bahan-bahan

24 porsi

96 halves (5 ounces) pecans ((they need to be PERFECT!))
3 ounces cream cheese, (at room temperature)
2 ounces Gorgonzola or blue cheese, (at room temperature)
2 teaspoons Port
½ teaspoon honey
1 pinch freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives, (for garnish)

Langkah-langkah

Preheat the oven to 350°F.
Place pecans on a baking sheet and bake until brown and aromatic, 7 to 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool.
Combine the cream cheese, Gorgonzola, port, honey, and pepper in a food processor, processing until smooth. Transfer to a sealable plastic bag and squeeze mixture into one corner. (Use a bag plus a decorative tip if you're going for a more decorative look).
To assemble: Spread 48 pecan halves flat-side down on the sheet tray. Cut a small tip off the corner of the bag of cheese mixture. Pipe about ¼ teaspoon of the cheese mixture evenly onto each pecan half. Top with a second pecan, flat-side down, and pipe ¼ teaspoon of the cheese mixture onto the top of each napoleon. Sprinkle with chopped chives to garnish.
