Fawnn I made a cheese spread over the holiday that was a hit. I took a block of cream cheese, I didn't measure the wedge of Stilton cheese, a sqidge of lemon juice, some toasted walnuts & a splat of milk & ran it throught the food proccesser. It wasn't very pretty (the stilton made it kinda blue) But, My oh my was it good on some tablewater crackers! YUM
