Cheese pralines with sheep’s cheese, makes about 20 pieces
Thoroughly mix the cream cheese, butter, and pecorino with salt and pepper. Soften the gelatin in cold water, squeeze out the excess water, and warm it with the cream. Dissolve the gelatin in the water, remove from the heat, and stir it into the cheese mixture. Let it set slightly (about 15 minutes) and immediately form into small balls. Roll them in chopped walnuts, herbs, chopped dates, dried apricot pieces, or red pepper flakes, depending on your taste. These cheese pralines are a great snack for a wine-drinking evening and a great addition to any cheese platter.
