Made these for a pool party over the weekend. They were a great success. Also served with a bowl of ranch dressing/dip for those afraid of my hot chili! Will make again.

These were okay, but we didn't rave about them. There wasn't anything wrong with them, as such, I just found them a bit ordinary and I didn't find the cheese really stood out in the chili. Maybe it would be better with the cheese grilled on top of potato skins and then the chilli as a dipping sauce.

I served this with buffalo chicken fingers (medium hot). Everyone wanted copies of the recipe!
