Served as appetizer. Non-vegetarian dish.

American

4 ounces fresh Goat Cheese

2 teaspoons Milk, more if needed

40 dried Apricots, use turkish if possible (6 oz)

2 teaspoons Honey

1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh Thyme Leaves (1-1/2 teaspoons dried Thyme)

40 candied Walnuts, halves

In the bowl of a stand mixer, place the cheese and milk. Using the paddle attachment, whip the cheese for at least 5 minutes, or until it is very smooth and creamy. If the cheese is still crumbly, add more milk 1/2 teaspoon at a time. To assemble, spread about 1/8 teaspoon of cheese on apricot. (If using California apricots, put the goat cheese on the shiny side.). Drizzle a little honey over the cheese and top with a sprinkling of thyme. Place a walnut half on top, arrange apricots on a platter and serve.
