Cheddar ale pub spread

1 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
8.00 ounce Old Cheddar Cheese, GRATED
8.00 ounce Cream Cheese, SOFTENED
125.00 millilitre Ale or beer
1.00 teaspoon Dry mustard
¼ teaspoon Cayenne pepper
½ cup Finely chopped toasted pecans
½ cup Chopped parsley (fresh)

Directions

Place cheeses in food processor or blender, process until smooth. (I used a combination of by hand and an electric mixer) Gradually add ale, mustard and cayenne pepper. If mixture is soft, refrigerate until firm enough to hold shape. Mould into a disc shape ( a sphere or ball!!). Combine pecans and parsley. Pat the mixture onto the ball or roll the ball in the mixture until the cheese mixture is covered completely. Place on a serving plate or board and surround with crackers or flatbreads. Slices of apple are nice with this too.

This is an easy thing to make and is very tasty.
