My mother served these simple blue bites as appetizers at our New England Saturday night suppers in the days of yore. I will not reveal when that was. Mom let me help her make them (very easy) and serve.

Blue Cheese Comfort BitesMakes 40 – they go fast on a winter eve.
Ingredients:1 can (10 biscuits) refrigerated biscuits
1/2 cup butter (one could use margarine)
3 tablespoons crumbled blue cheese. (We love the Oregon blue cheese best)

Directions:

  • Remove biscuits from package and separate onto a large greased or sprayed baking pan.
    In a small pan (or carefully in the microwave) simmer the butter and blue cheese until melted, stirring when necessary.
  • Pour over biscuit pre-cut pieces.
  • Pre-heat oven, (375-400)
  • Bake until done. Perhaps 10-12 minutes. They will be a golden, honey color.
  • Serve at once on a tray on a white linen cloth napkin or towel.

My parents drank those delicious 1940s cocktails, old fashions, Tom Collins, martinis and Manhattans.

However, these blue cheese bites work best with an icy, cold beer or ale. Lemonade for the wee ones.

This simple recipe is great for impromptu guests as the ingredients are often found in the fridge.
