1/2 c flour
5/8 tsp cayenne pepper
24 pimiento stuffed olives

Steps:

  • 1. Drain olives and pat dry with towels.
  • 2. Combine cheese and butter in a bowl.
  • 3. Add flour and cayenne and blend until well mixed.
  • 4. Drop the dough by tablespoons onto wax paper and wrap or mold each piece of dough around an olive, covering it completely.
  • 5. Bake the wrapped olives on a baking sheet in the middle of a preheated 400 degree oven for 15 minutes or until golden.
  • 6. Serve warm.

Tips:

  • Choose the right olives. Larger olives, such as jumbo Kalamata or green olives, work best for this recipe as they can hold more cheese.
  • Use a good quality cheddar cheese. The better the cheese, the better the flavor of the olives.
  • Don't overcook the olives. They should be cooked until the cheese is melted and bubbly, but not until the olives are soft.
  • Serve the olives immediately. They are best enjoyed hot and fresh out of the oven.

Conclusion:

Cheddar baked olives are a delicious and easy appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be tailored to your own personal taste. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a dish that is sure to impress your guests. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy appetizer, give cheddar baked olives a try!
