This is a dish from my four-course cheese menu for [[:Category:Iron Chef SA 015:Cheese|Iron Chef SA XV:The Big Cheesy]]
#[[Parmesan-Corn Soup]]
#[[Goat Cheese Tart]]
#[[Bleu Peanut Butter and Cherry Sandwich]]
#[[Cheese Mousse with Summer Berries]]





This may seem a little strange as a dessert but it's a really nice and ultimately sweet combination of flavors as long as the cheese is on the mild end of the spectrum. Too strong and it can overwhelm everything.
I would also be comfortable serving this as a segue from savory to sweet, after an entrée and before a more traditional dessert.

==Ingredients (Serves 4)==
*1/2 C Cherry [[Sorbet]]
*2 oz Mild Bleu Cheese
*4 Peanut Butter Biscotti, store-bought or made from [http://southernfood.about.com/od/pbcookies/r/bl1214h.htm this] recipe
*2 Tbsp Orange-Blossom Honey

==Procedure==
*Make the [[Sorbet|sorbet]] using a 1lb bag of frozen cherries. Let freeze.
*Bake the biscotti, omitting the last step of toasting the cookies. It's better if they're a bit softer here so you can cut through them with a fork instead of pushing the hard cookie around the plate.
*Slice the bleu cheese into triangles around 1/8in thick, one per plate.
*Arrange the dish as pictured and drizzle with a bit of the honey. Serve.
