We've been making this in our family forever. It comes from my "Aunt" Nancy who is actually a good, old friend of my mother. This is very addicting and people always rave. Great for superbowl parties. Takes no time at all to make.

CHEDDAR OLIVES



CHEDDAR OLIVES image

Categories     Cheese

Yield 40

Number Of Ingredients 10

40 pimento-stuffed green olives, rinsed
1 cup (5 ounces) all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
8 ounces extra-sharp cheddar cheese, shredded (2 cups)
7 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into 7 pieces
1 large egg, lightly beaten
1 tablespoon water
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

Steps:

  • 1. Spread olives on dish towel and roll around to dry. Pulse flour, paprika, pepper, and cayenne in food ­processor until combined, about 3 pulses. Add cheddar and butter and pulse until mixture resembles coarse crumbs, about 12 pulses. Add egg, water, and Worcestershire and process until dough ball forms, about 20 seconds. 2. Working with 2 teaspoons dough and 1 olive at a time, pat dough into 2-inch circle; place olive in center of dough; form dough around olive; and roll cheddar olive between your hands to make uniform ball. Place cheddar olives on large platter, cover tightly with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 1 hour or up to 24 hours (or freeze to bake later). 3. Adjust oven racks to upper-middle and lower-middle positions and heat oven to 350 degrees. Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper. Space cheddar olives evenly on prepared sheets. Bake until bottoms are well browned and tops are golden, 16 to 18 minutes (if baking from frozen, increase cooking time to about 25 minutes), switching and rotating sheets halfway through baking. Transfer cheddar olives to wire rack and let cool for about 30 minutes before serving.

Tips:

  • Choosing the Right Cheddar: Opt for a sharp cheddar cheese with a bold flavor to ensure your cheddar olives stand out.
  • Mixing the Ingredients: Use a food processor to combine the cheddar cheese and olives until they are evenly distributed. This will help create a smooth and consistent filling.
  • Seasoning: Don't forget to season the filling with a pinch of salt and pepper to enhance the flavors.
  • Chilling the Filling: Before stuffing the olives, chill the filling for at least 30 minutes. This will make it easier to handle and prevent it from becoming too soft.
  • Using the Right Olives: Choose large, firm olives for stuffing. This will ensure that they can hold the filling without breaking.
  • Sealing the Olives: After stuffing the olives, seal them tightly with a toothpick to prevent the filling from leaking out during baking.
  • Baking Temperature and Time: Bake the olives at a moderate temperature for 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Keep a close eye on them to prevent overcooking.
  • Serving Suggestions: Serve the cheddar olives as an appetizer or snack. They also make a great addition to cheese platters or party buffets.

Conclusion:

Cheddar olives are a delightful and easy-to-make appetizer that combines the classic flavors of cheddar cheese and olives. With a few simple ingredients and a bit of preparation, you can create these delicious treats at home. Whether you're hosting a party or looking for a unique snack, cheddar olives are sure to be a hit.
