- Add the Cognac, season with salt and pepper and process until completely smooth.
- Scrape the pâté into 2 or 3 large ramekins.
- Press a piece of plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the pâté and refrigerate until firm.
- Serve chilled with Toasted baguette slices and Crudités.
- Freeze any leftovers (ha!) for future use up to 4 months.

Fried Chicken Livers rate pretty high on my list of faves. I can't see any reason why this version wouldn't do the same... especially because it's tasty, and almost as importantly because it's CHEAP ;-) Thanks and a ^5 to you. This is great.
