Aunt Erma Lee's Smooth and Creamy Pimento Cheese image

This is a creamy spread that is cooked. My Aunt Erma Lee was a great cook. Feel free to adjust the sugar to your taste. This is a great spread for sandwiches with soup. Try spreading it on buns with hamburgers or sloppy joes for a new twist! Soars above store-bought! Can be kept under refrigeration for up to one week.

I'm allergic to nuts, so I substituted sunflower seeds for the pecans. It turned out great!

I had some trouble finding pimentos, but I was able to substitute roasted red peppers. The pimento cheese still turned out great!

This pimento cheese is a little too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I think it would be perfect for people who like a little bit of heat in their food.
