Sausage-cheese balls (appetizer)
1 lb hot bulk sausage
8 oz sharp cheese, shredded
3 cups baking mix (Bisquick, Jiffy, etc.)
Mix by hand. At first it doesn't look like it will *ever* come
together, but keep at it. Roll into walnut-sized balls and place on
lightly greased baking sheet. Bake at 375 F for about 20 minutes or
until lightly browned. Serve hot/warm.
Toothpicks might be a good idea. Need not dip them in anything,
they're great as they are. Some say they're ok cold but I like 'em
warm. Baking time can vary considerably depending on sausage and
oven. It's a good idea to pull out one ball at 15 minutes, let it
cool a bit, taste. Too soggy? Try another at 20 minutes, and so on.
Best -- Terry
