Nothing is better than the original at The Chocolate Angel Tea Room in Plano, Tx but having seen the Southern Living review framed in the restuarant I had to do a little research and make it myself. It was the HIT of the bridal shower. Because they were on the serving table, I served on croisants kept warm under a lamp and they were still good. At a recent party for that annual football classic, I served it dip style in a heated dish with crackers and it was just as good. For that occassion I chopped bacon into bits sprinkled over the top instead of bacon slices.

I just happened to have some homemade pimiento cheese, so when I saw tIhs recipe in SL, I had to try it. YUM! I know it sounds strange, but it's really delicious. Go on try it.... you know you want to. FYI - I used my own pimiento cheese recipe.
