Mark, these are wonderful. I made them like your directions said. The Old English Cheese gives these appetizers a sharper, cheese flavor than using all Cheddar. They were spicy and full of flavor without being too hot. They were a big hit and voted a "must return" food. Family will get their wish since I froze a batch too. Thanks for sharing this wonderful recipe.

Our cooking club made these. We used the imperial cheese because we couldn't get the old English cheese spread. We didn't like them fresh but tonight we reheated the frozen ones from last week. They were crunchier and much better. The girls say they are a keeper. It is great to have them in the freezer for unexpected guests.

What can I say about myself that hasn't already been mentioned in the police reports? Just kidding! I'm a single guy who loves to cook! Good thing, or I'd starve or go broke eating out! I love to read, horror and mysteries are my favorite.
Love music, (except rap) and I'm a huge Green Bay Packer Fan!
