Story
|
The dried apricot in these cheddar cheese snacks adds a real nice unexpected sweet taste. They are handy just to pick up and pop right in your mouth, or they are a perfect size to place on top of a cracker to eat. These appetizers are perfect, too, for potluck events or holiday appetizers because you don't end up with a sloppy looking cheese ball like you do when you make the large size.
