I'm allergic to cheese, so I couldn't try these cheesy straws. But they sure did look delicious!

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my cheesy straws came out really dry. I think I might have overcooked them.

I used a different type of cheese than the recipe called for and my cheesy straws didn't turn out as well. They were still good, but not as cheesy as I wanted.
