Cheese Straws
Description
The appetizer comes together quickly and easily. Cheese straws are simply fantastic—a skill worth mastering. First, kids absolutely love crunching on these cheesy sticks. Second, my husband loves eating them with beer, dipping them in some tasty sauce. Third, it’s a very popular appetizer for a cocktail spread—it cuts through the flavor nicely and lets you enjoy each new sip as if it were the first. The appetizer is ready. Serve immediately.
