Ingredients

  • servings pepper black freshly ground to taste
  • ounces cheese blue crumbled
  • ounce cream cheese 
  • 0.3 cup heavy whipping cream 
  • servings kosher salt to taste

Equipment

  • food processor
  • bowl
  • whisk
  • pastry bag

Directions

  1. Puree blue cheese and cream cheese together in a food processor until completely smooth; transfer to a bowl and season with kosher salt and black pepper.
  2. Beat heavy cream in a glass or metal bowl until soft peaks form. Lift your beater or whisk straight up: the whipped cream will form soft mounds rather than a sharp peak. Fold whipped cream into the blue cheese mixture, stirring until the mixture is creamy with no lumps.
