These nibbles are both easy to make and absolutely scrummy.
20 thin slices white bread, crusts removed
125g blue cheese, room temperature
200g tub cream cheese, at room temperature
1 egg, beaten
20 fresh asparagus spears
300g butter
Line a baking tray with greaseproof paper and set aside.
Remove the crusts from the bread, and flatten slightly with a rolling pin or a mug.
In a bowl, mix the blue and cream cheeses together with the egg until creamy.
Spread a thin layer of cheese mixture over each slice of bread.
Roll one asparagus spear inside each, and fasten with a skewer.
Melt the butter in a saucepan.
Roll each asparagus wrap in butter to coat evenly.
Freeze for one hour.
Preheat the oven to 200°C / 400°F / Gas mark 6.
Remove from freezer, discard skewers, and cut each wrap in half crosswise.
Bake for 25 minutes, or until lightly browned.
Turning when necessary, for even browning.
