method
1. Crumble the cheese into a bowl with the butter and beat to a smooth paste.
2. Beat in the chives or spring onion tops, celery, seasonings, and cognac or Worcestershire sauce. If mixture is very stiff, beat in a little more butter.
3. Check seasoning carefully. Roll into balls about 1 cm (1/2 inch) in diameter.
4. Mix the breadcrumbs and parsley on a plate. Roll the cheese balls in the mixture so that they are well coated. Chill.
5. Serve as they are, or pierced on a cocktail stick.
