A neighbor who's a wonderful cook gave me the recipe for this zippy cracker spread. It's easy to shape into a Christmas tree for a festive occasion, but it looks enticing in a bowl or on a plate, too. -Judy Grimes, Brandon, Mississippi

Such an easy spread to make. Excellent for rolls, burgers, even steak. Probably not too healthy, but awesome. I have no idea how much this makes, but there usually insn't a whole lot left at my house.

FIRESIDE CHEESE SPREAD

Fireside Cheese Spread image

When our family and friends get together for holidays or other occasions, I serve this appetizer. It's always a success. If you prefer, try a Swiss cheese spread instead of the cheddar. And, if you enjoy garlic, substitute a small clove of minced garlic for the garlic powder. -Debbie Terenzini-Wilkerson, Lusby, Maryland
