INSTRUCTIONS
* Note: Stracchino is a soft, mild, cow's milk cheese that comes from the
Lombardy region of Italy. Cut the cheese into slices about 4 inches square
and about 1/2-inch thick. Spread pine nuts out on a plate. Press into the
pine nuts so that they adhere on one side, and set aside. Heat a 10-inch
nonstick pan over medium heat, and add 2 tablespoons butter. When the
butter is sizzling, place the cheese pieces in the pan nut-side down, and
cook until golden brown on the nut side, about 3 minutes. Remove each
piece, and place on a separate plate, nut-side up. Add the cinnamon,
amaretto, and remaining 2 teaspoons butter to the pan, and reduce by half
over high heat, about 2 minutes. Pour the sauce over the cheese, and serve
immediately. Serves 4.
