Blue Cheese Spread
from Country Living

For the best and most pungent taste, crumble a wedge of domestic Maytag blue cheese with a fork rather than using prepackaged crumbled cheese.

1/2 cup mascarpone cheese, softened
1 tablespoon heavy cream
2 teaspoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves, finely chopped [I would prefer parsley]
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon coarse-ground pepper
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 cup crumbled blue cheese (about 5 ounces)

Mix the mascarpone, heavy cream, lemon juice, thyme, salt, pepper, and cayenne together in a medium bowl. Gently stir in the blue cheese and serve.

Yields: 1 1/2 cups
