AUNT ELAINE'S SWISS CHEESE & OLIVE DELIGHTS
This appetizer recipe came from my Aunt Elaine who lives in Newport Beach, California and I've been making it for years. These cheesy bite size munchies have been a home run for my family and is always a requested appetizer for any of our special events including Football season. Thank you Aunt Elaine for this wonderful slam...

Steps:
- 1. Cut each of the english muffins in half. Place each half on a cookie sheet and broil until brown, set aside
- 2. Add the rest of the ingredients. use enough mayonnaise to hold cheese mixture together.
- 3. Spread generous amount on each half and broil again until brown. Cool.
- 4. Once cooled, cut each round in quarters. I find the best way to cut is to use a pizza cutter and roll across to quarter. It seems to be less messy than using a knife.
- 5. Serve on a platter. So Yummy!
HOT CHEESE OLIVES
This is classic 1950s cocktail fare that, unlike the savory gelées and boiled ham canapés that are best forgotten, we still want to eat today. Just wrap cocktail olives in a simple Cheddar dough and bake until golden. Martini optional.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Beat the butter until creamy in a large mixing bowl, add the cheese and mix well. Stir in the flour, salt, cayenne and the Worcestershire and mix until smooth. Beat the egg with 2 tablespoons cold water. Add to the dough and mix just until incorporated. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Remove the dough and flatten out a piece about the size of a walnut into a thin round. Place an olive on top and shape it around the olive, pinching to repair any breaks. Place it on an ungreased cookie sheet. Repeat with the remaining dough and olives. Bake until the dough sets, about 15 minutes. Serve hot.

MY HUSBAND'S FAVORITE GRILLED CHEESE & GREEN OLIVE SANDWICH
Have you been thinking, lately, that you really need more green olives in your diet? Of course you have! This is just one of my husband's food brainstorms. He comes up with wonderful ideas for *me* to make. Isn't he sweet? I've started to notice a pattern: most of them involve green olives, or garlic, or both!

AUNT ELAINES ITALIAN ANISE COOKIES
When I first tasted these cookies I was in love, then I found out they were made from riccota cheese. I am not a big fan of any desserts made with cheese, but you cannot even taste the ricotta in them. If you don't care for anise flavoring they can be made with any other flavor you choose.
