MAKE YOUR OWN BOURSIN CHEESE - PAULA DEEN

Make Your Own Boursin Cheese - Paula Deen image

This recipe comes from Paula Deen. It tastes exactly like the boursin cheese sold at stores, for a fraction of the cost! I like to serve this spread with buttery crackers. You could also use it to make sandwiches, etc... The prep time does not include softening of cream cheese, butter or the refrigeration time.

PAULA DEEN'S PIMENTO CHEESE

Paula Deen's Pimento Cheese image

This Southern classic is adapted from a recipe by Paula Deen, the television chef, cookbook author and restaurateur, but pimento cheese has long been indispensable for parties, gatherings and afternoon feasts. The heat from the garlic powder and grated onion cuts through the creaminess of the cheese and mayonnaise, and the pimentos give it an unforgettable punch. Serve it with celery, or spread on your favorite crackers or sandwich bread. It's a creamy, cheesy crowd-pleaser.
