Cheese Bites are delicious and easy to make. They mix up fast and cook in 10 minutes. We also make these as a snack food for our family. Especially on those nights when our kids are having a slumber party and plain old popcorn just won't cut it.
Our kids like to dip them into ketchup. Come to think of it; they like to dip just about everything into ketchup.
You can add some crumbled bacon, sausage or ham into the batter. Also, try some chopped green onion for a stronger taste.
