Bake at 350° for 15 to 18 minutes or until thoroughly heated. Serve with assorted vegetables and bread cubes.

Made for book club and it was a big hit. Large portion - easily divided for freezing.

My SIL made this for an appetizer last night and it is now one of my favorites. I'm going to make it for a Christmas Day snack for my guests. I think a drizzle of balsamic vinegar over the top would be delish!

This was fantastic and so easy to make. Brought it to Christmas party and everyone raved about it and wanted recipe. It makes a lot. Served with bread, crackers, cucumbers and brocoli. I used garlic and herb goat cheese. Will make again for sure.
