[recipe] Cheese Crisps

[Guest guest]

These are yummy any time, and the rice cereal adds a nice

crunch. Last time i took these to a party they were the first

plate that was empty.

 

Cheese Crisps

 

1 cup margarine, softened

2 cups all-purpose flour

1/2 tsp salt

1/4 tsp cayenne pepper

2 cups (8oz.) shredded sharp cheddar cheese

3 cups crisp rice cereal

 

In a mixing bowl, cream the margarine until fluffy.

Slowly mix in the flour, salt and cayenne pepper.

Stir in cheese and cereal. Shape into 1-1/2 inch balls

and place on ungreased baking sheets.

Bake at 350 degrees for 15 to 17 minutes or until slightly

browned. Serve warm or cold.

Yield: 3 dozen

Be kind and tender to the Frog,

And do not call him names,

As " Slimy skin, " or " Polly-wog, "

Or likewise " Ugly James, "

Or " Gap-a-grin, " or " Toad-gone-wrong, "

Or " Bill Bandy-knees " :

The Frog is justly sensitive

To epithets like these.

No animal will more repay

A treatment kind and fair;

At least so lonely people say

Who keep a frog (and, by the way,

They are extremely rare).

~ a poem by Hillare Belloc entitled 'The Frog'
