"Goat cheese is seasoned with onion and herbs, rolled into savory truffles, and rolled with almonds, sprinkled with paprika or left plain for an easy and attractive appetizer." — Alexis de Portneuf

1 (250 g) package Chèvre des neiges (Snow Goat), cheese
2 green onions, finely chopped
1/4 teaspoon Espelette pepper
1/4 cup chopped fresh herbs (your choice of thyme, basil, parsley, oregano…)
1/4 cup roasted almonds, finely chopped
2 teaspoons paprika
Fabulous! I used about 1/8 teas of ground black pepper, because that's what I had. My Trader Joes chopped pecans were too big and almond meal was too powdery but worked; next time I'll chop almonds or pecans to an intermediary texture. Wet your hands a bit to form the balls. This recipe is a keeper. Yum!
I really enjoyed this recipe. It was easy to make, yet quite classy. I tried them with basil and thyme, and GREATLY preferred the thyme. Just be aware that this can be quite messy - you'll end up with goat cheese all over your hands and spoon!

These were great. I used fresh herbs (sage, oregano, basil) on half and nuts on the other half. Easy to make and turned out very impressive. Thanks for the recipe.
