These hot cheese bites were brought to an election night party I attended years ago. Sharp cheddar and blue cheese give them a slightly tangy favor.

My Husband is a HUGE Blue Cheese fan. My son and I not so much. That being said... This recipe is a favorite at our house. I've taken to family functions as well and they're always raved about.
