Savor these decadent gorgonzola cheesecakes topped with toasted walnuts for a unique and delicious starter!
Ingredients:
  • 1/4 cup ground walnuts
  • 2 packages (8 ounces each) cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 cup crumbled Gorgonzola cheese (4 ounces)
  • 3/4 teaspoon coarsely ground pepper
  • 1/2 cup chopped toasted walnuts
  • Assorted crackers, if desired
Instructions:
  • Preheat the oven to 325°F. Wrap the outside of a 9x3 inch springform pan with heavy-duty aluminum foil. Grease the inside of the pan with cooking spray and scatter ground walnuts over the bottom.
  • In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add the eggs and beat until just smooth. Gently stir in the sour cream, cheese, and pepper until blended. Spoon the mixture evenly over the walnuts in the pan.
  • Place the springform in a large roasting pan and pour hot water into the roasting pan until it reaches one-fourth full. Bake uncovered for 40 to 45 minutes or until the center is almost set. Remove the cheesecake from the roasting pan and run a knife around the edge to loosen it. Let it cool completely at room temperature for about 2 hours, then cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours but no longer than 48 hours. Remove the side of the pan, garnish with toasted walnuts, cut into wedges, and serve with crackers.
