Contributed by: Kim Boyd
Ingredients: 2 14-oz. cans of artichoke hearts, drained and quartered 6 oz. thinly sliced Prosciutto 1 cup whipping cream 11⁄2 cups crumbled Gorgonzola cheese 1⁄2 cup pine nuts (about 2 oz.) 1⁄4 cup grated Parmesan cheese 1 tsp. chopped fresh sage
Pat quartered artichoke hearts dry with paper towels. Cut each Prosciutto slice crosswise in half. Wrap each artichoke heart quarter in halved Prosciutto slice. Place wrapped artichoke hearts in a single layer in a 13x9x2-inch baking dish. Pour cream over them. Sprinkle with Gorgonzola cheese, pine nuts, Parmesan cheese and sage. Bake at 350 degrees until gratin is bubbling and sauce thickens, about 25 minutes. Serve warm. Serve with crusty bread to soak up some of the creamy juices. Serves 12.
