I've had this recipe for so long, I can't remember where I got it from. It's very good on toast, crackers, vanilla wafers, or whatever you would like to use it on. It is also great for gift giving. I use any brand roasted, salted cashews or unsalted if you wish. You could also roast your own. I sometimes add 1/4 teaspoon vanilla.

SERVES 16 , 1 cup (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups roasted cashews
1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
1/3 cup semisweet chocolate piece, melted
1 teaspoon instant coffee crystals, dissolved in 1 teaspoon warm water

Directions

1
Place nuts in blender container or food processor bowl. Cover; blend or process until finely ground. Add half of the butter and half of the chocolate.
2
Cover and blend again. Add remaining chocolate and butter and the coffee mixture and blend about 3 minutes or until smooth.
3
To store, cover and chill up to 1 month. To serve, let stand at room temperature 1 hour. Makes about 1 cup. 1 tablespoon per serving.
4
For gift giving, layer this rich-tasting spread and additional whole cashews in a crock or pretty jar.
