I had these little gems today at a Holiday Appetizer Party for my cooking group. They are SO TASTY! Don't let the simple name fool you... You could serve these to any crowd! I think if I made them though I would leave out the salt, as there is a lot of salt in the chicken broth and cheese, and they were a little too salty, and I LOVE salt. If your looking for an elegant appetizer for the holidays THIS IS IT! Yummo.... Glad you posted it Cool Monday. Linda

I have a good housekeeping cookbook that's about 40 years old and I love it... I have recipes I have saved over the years and have posted some of them.
My pet peeve???? hmmmm that would have to be rude or inconsiderate people. Another pet peeve is people who "tell it like it is".
