Stilton Walnut Biscotti

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups AP flour
1/2 cup cornmeal (I combined fine and coarse for this, but might make it with fine only next time)
1 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 cup Stilton cheese, crumbled well
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup butter, at room temperature
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
cup sugar

Preparation

1
Preheat the oven to 375F.
2
Combine the AP, cornmeal, baking soda, and salt in a small bowl.
3
In a larger bowl, cream the butter and sugar until until fluffy.
4
Add the Dijon, cheese, and eggs to the mixer and combine well. Don't forget to scrape down the edges of the bowl.
5
Slowly add the dry ingredients and mix well.
6
Form 2 logs of dough and place them on a parchment paper-covered baking sheet.
7
Bake for 25 - 30 minutes. Rotate mid-way through baking to ensure even baking. Note: The outside of the biscotti may look done, but the inside may still be unbaked. Resist the urge to take these out of the oven before 20 minutes.
8
Remove from the oven and let the biscotti rest for 10 minutes.
9
Slice on the diagonal and return to the oven for an additional 5 - 10 minutes, flipping the cookies midway through the time to dry evenly.

Terrific for taking to a wine tasting event. You can substitute another blue cheese for Stilton if it's easier to find.
