Made locally here in Massachusetts, Effie's combines the sweetness of Southern pecans with stone-ground whole wheat and wildflower honey to create these irresistible nutty tea biscuits. Sure, they're the perfect mate to a cup of tea or coffee but equally good with cheese and fresh fruit. Try the recipe below paired with your favorite aged port or sherry.

Pear and Blue Cheese Hors d'oeuvres
- 4 Effie's Oatcakes or Nutcakes, cut in half
- 3 oz. Blue Cheese or Gorgonzola
- 2 T. heavy cream
- 2-3 fresh pears, stemmed and sliced thinly
- 1 T. chopped fresh Italian parsley, chervil or chives
Pre-heat the broiler on high.
In a small bowl combine the blue cheese and heavy cream. Use a sturdy rubber spatula or small metal spoon to blend the cream into the cheese, making a smooth spread.
Place the oatcakes or nutcakes on a baking pan and top each one with some blue cheese spread. Top the cheese with a pear slice. Place the sheet pan under the broiler for 15-30 seconds. Rotate the pan as needed, making sure the pears and cheese turn bubbly.
Top the hors d’oeuvres with the fresh chopped herbs and serve hot.
