PlayFood: Cheese Balls with Olive
"Olives Baffled" (This recipe comes from a cooking class at Gamble House, Palo Alto.) 2 cups sharp cheddar cheese, grated 1 cup flour 1/4 lb butter 48 (or so) green olives with pimiento Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Put the cheese and butter in a food processor and blend until smooth. Add the flour and mix well. Roll out to 1/4 inch thichkness. Cut the dough into 2 inch squares (or so) and wrap a square around each olive, sealing the seams. (Actually, I didn't worry about making squares; I just took what looked like a good amount and mashed it around the olive.) Place cheese balls on a cookie sheet and bake 15 minutes (or so). Check after the first 10 munutes to make sure they don't burn. (I don't think mine were in any danger of burning. I had to make myself leave them in long enough. They look just a little darker and sort of toasty when done.) Makes 48.
