Baked Cheese Treats

Ingredients

1 large loaf French bread

1 /2 pound sharp cheddar cheese

1 /2 pound white cheddar

3 /4 cup mayonnaise

1 /4 cup sour cream

3 Tbsp whipping cream

1 tsp Creole seasoning

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

Remove crust from French bread. Cut bread into 1 1 /2-inch thick circles, then cut the circles in half creating half moon shaped slices of bread.

Refrigerate for 30 minutes, or until ready to serve, or freeze until ready to use.

Sprinkle the bread with the shredded parmesan and bake five minutes.

Can be held warm for 20-30 minutes.
