Here’s another idea for a little treat to serve when having friends over for “just a glass of wine.” Savory goat cheese thumbprint cookies. The goat cheese is baked into the cookie dough along with a hint of ground thyme. I rolled some in toasted pecans and others in slivered almonds. The pecan cookies were topped with fig jam and the almond with raspberry jam and a little gold leaf from Barnabas Gold.
This Fig and Shallot Focaccia is light and fluffy in the middle with crispy, crunchy edges. It’s generously sprinkled with goat cheese and dried rosemary and is on the thinner side, so it works well as an easy flatbread or pizza-ish dinner. Even better? You can have this on the table in around two hours from start to finish.
Goat cheese is the star here. Its tangy, rich flavor is complimented by the sweetness of the caramelized shallots and warmth of fresh rosemary. Grape tomatoes add an acidic balance to it all making this a to-die-for gourmet pizza. I was sad to see this one disappear from the dinner table so quickly. I’ll have to make more.
