Roquefort Grapes(Makes 50 Hors D'Oeuvres) - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 (10 oz.) pkg. almonds, pecans or walnuts
    1 (8 oz.) pkg. cream cheese
    1/8 lb. Roquefort cheese
    2 Tbsp. heavy cream
    1 lb. seedless grapes (red or green), washed and dried
Preparation
    To toast nuts, preheat oven to 275\u00b0.
    Spread nuts on baking sheet and bake until toasted.
    Almonds should be a light golden brown color; pecans or walnuts should smell toasted, but not burned.
    Chop toasted nuts rather coarsely.
    Spread on a platter. Using electric mixer, combine Roquefort, cream cheese and cream and beat until smooth.
    Drop clean, dry grapes into the cheese mixture and gently stir by hand to coat them.
    Then roll the coated grapes in the toasted nuts and put on a tray lined with waxed paper.
    Chill until ready to serve.
