Toffee Grapes - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    100 g bunch green grapes, washed and dried
    100 g bunch black grapes, washed and dried
    1 cup caster sugar
    1/2 cup water
    blue cheese, to serve
    cheddar cheese, to serve
    brie cheese, to serve
    gorgonzola, to serve
    sliced baguette or your choice bread, to serve
Preparation
    Line 2 baking trays with non-stick baking paper; and using kitchen scissors, cut the grapes into small bunches of 3-6 grapes.
    Combine the sugar and water in a heavy-based saucepan and stir over a low heat until the sugar dissolves. Increase the heat to medium and gently boil, without stirring, occasionally brushing down the sides of the pan with a pastry brush dipped in water, for 12-15 minutes or until golden, then set the toffee mixture aside until the bubbles have reduced.
    Using kitchen tongs to hold the stem (or if your tongs are too large for this job, a pair of tweezers), gently dip a grape cluster into the toffee mixture and turn it evenly to ensure that it is fully coated. Transfer the grapes to the prepared tray. Repeat with the remaining grapes and toffee mixture. Set aside for 10 minutes or until the toffee sets.
    Arrange the grapes on a cheese board with the assorted cheeses of your choice. And serve with water biscuits, Oaten Biscuits Recipe #144738 and bread slices.
