Pimento Cheese Rolls

 

This is an appetizer recipe that I first shared with my readers on February 6 of this year. I was so brand new to blogging.

Today, I am sharing My Favorite Appetizer recipe over at Kelly’s Korner for her Show Us Your Life series.

From the grilled pimento cheese on challah bread at Henri's Bakery in Atlanta's Buckhead to the savory pimento cheese spread at Zara's Uptown, I am a huge fan of anything made with this Southern comfort food.

     Flipping through the pages of the February 2012 Southern Living magazine, there is a whole section devoted to this savory treat, Pimento Cheese: The Pate' of the South. I salivated at the following mouth-watering recipes--- Smoky Pimento Cheese Deviled Eggs, Pimento Cheese Cookies, Hominy Grill's Pimento Cheese, and the one I decided to prepare for a Super Sunday Superbowl Soiree, Pimento Cheese Rolls. These are an easy and great go-to if you LOVE pimento cheese like I do.

Makes: 1 dozen

     Hand-On time: 15 minutes

2. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Sprinkle biscuits lightly with flour. Press the edges together, and pat to form a 10 x 12 rectangle of dough. Then, spread dough with pimento cheese.spread pimento cheese

    Let me just say that these pimento cheese rolls do not disappoint. They are simply delicious, simply tasty, and simply Southern.

     * Tip: I baked for 25 minutes on top rack of oven. I would probably bake on the lower rack for 20 minutes next time

Pimento Cheese Rolls, y’all!
