INSTRUCTIONS
Roll out the pastry and cut into your preferred shape for the pastry
cases (round, square or oblong). Bake in a hot oven at 380F until the
cases rise. Lower the oven temperature to 200F and put the cases on
the lower shelf to dry out slightly. Be careful not to let them burn.
Cool them on a wire rack.
It is very important that all the ingredients for this mousse are at
more or less the same temperature - the other secret is not to
over-mix, so bear this in mind as you go.
Melt the butter gently to soften it but not to separate the solids
from the liquids. It should look like thick custard.
In a mixing bowl, mix the mascarpone and Roquefort together and
gently add the butter, chives and celery leaves. Finally, carefully
fold in the double cream and put into the fridge to chill.
Place your pastry cases back in the oven to heat through. Remove when
hot, cut in half to form a base and lid and place on a warm plate.
Using a hot spoon, scoop some mousse on to the pastry base, put the
lid on top and serve immediately.

A Message from our Provider:
“We need to discover all over again that worship is natural to the Christian, as it was to the godly Israelites who wrote the psalms, and that the habit of celebrating the greatness and graciousness of God yields an endless flow of thankfulness, joy, and zeal. #J.I. Packer”
