Blue Cheese Dressing (Helen Corbitt Adaptation)

GREAT WITH WINGS! This is an adaptation of Helen Corbitt's Roquefort Dressing. Made with Blue Stilton, it is a flavorful blue cheese dressing. Not so mild as standard blue but not so overpowering as Roquefort. I always make it with the requested portion of Beau Monde, but then wish I had reduced it slightly so you may want to make it a scant 1/2 t. Also, to serve as a thick dip, you can reduce the half and half to 1/2 c.
