Ingredients

• 2 cups Sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
• 1 cup Roquefort cheese, crumbled
• 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, softened
• 4 ounces Cream cheese, softened
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, finely chopped
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 0.5 cup Crushed walnuts (optional, for coating)
• 1 roll Plastic wrap

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded cheddar cheese, Roquefort cheese, softened butter, and cream cheese until smooth. You can use a hand mixer to ensure the mixture blends evenly.

Step 2

Add the finely chopped parsley, garlic powder, and ground black pepper to the cheese mixture. Stir thoroughly to distribute the seasonings.

Step 3

Spread a large sheet of plastic wrap on a clean surface. Scoop the cheese mixture onto the plastic wrap and shape it into a log or roll about 2 inches in diameter.

Step 4

If desired, sprinkle the crushed walnuts evenly onto the plastic wrap before rolling the cheese roll. This will coat the outside of the roll and add texture and flavor.

Step 5

Wrap the cheese roll tightly in the plastic wrap, ensuring it's fully sealed. Twist the ends of the wrap to secure the shape.

Step 6

Place the wrapped cheese roll in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours to firm up. For storage of up to a month, transfer the wrapped roll into an airtight container or a resealable plastic bag and freeze.

Step 7

To serve, remove the cheese roll from the refrigerator or freezer. Allow it to thaw slightly (if frozen) before slicing into rounds or serving with crackers, bread, or vegetable sticks.
