Review: Cornmeal Cheese Twists

[Terrytx]

From CL-12/00

We had these last night with potato soup. They were good, not super wonderful, but good enough to make again.

Our supper club had these last month with the Chipoltle Chicken Stew. We thought the same thing you did - they were good, and really easy to make. Not spectacular, however!

Maybe they'd be better with homemade bread dough - but then they wouldn't be as easy. The trade offs.....

I would like this recipe, does anyone have it typed already to post? I would greatly appreciate it! http://www.cookinglight.com/bbs/smile.gif

these little treats were good fresh out of the oven but try them the next day..they make good dog food. i guess with those pilsbury products they dont keep fresh tasting like homemade.

I think I just figured out that you are talking about a premade pilsbury product, is that so? Either way, from the last post, I think I'll wait to try these-- I don't have a dog! http://www.cookinglight.com/bbs/smile.gif

We had these for our supper club several weeks ago. I thought they were really good--I couldn't tell that the dough wasn't homemade. I took one home with me and it was still good the next day--not even a crumb left for the dog!
