Blue Cheese Logs

This recipe is a holiday MUST! My mom has been making this for several years now, and it is TO DIE FOR! It's from Sept. 2000 Southern Living. The recipe makes 4 logs, so you almost have to serve 2 at a time...THEY ARE THAT GOOD! Then you can have 2 in the freezer for unexpected guests! Enjoy!
