These yummy little bites are so easy to make
and only take about 10 minutes from start to finish!
1/2 cup Mayonnaise
1/2 cup Parmesan Cheese
1/4 cup Cheddar Cheese
1/4 cup Bacon Pieces
1/2 t dried Basil
4 slices Bread
Mix mayonnaise, Parmesan, cheddar, bacon and basil in a large bowl. Cut rounds out of the bread with a small cookie cutter. Toast on one side under the broiler. Remove from oven. (You can do this step ahead of time and freeze in zip loc freezer bags.) Using a small scoop (cookie size scoop) place one scoop of cheese mixture on the un-toasted side of each round. Place under the broiler for 3-4 minutes or until golden brown. Serve immediately.
So glad I saw you share these, love anything with bacon! These would make a great after school snack for the kids to tide them over till dinner. That is, if I can share them, just might have to make 2 batches!
ReplyDeleteYummmmmm!
ReplyDeleteDoing these tonight Lynn!! Wow! I am drooling... Great Post!
ReplyDeletehow would they be if you saved all the cutting by using english muffins?
ReplyDeleteThat sounds good to me also...
DeleteThese look and sound sooooo good!! Thank you for posting them on Manic Monday!!
ReplyDeleteThese look AMAZING!
ReplyDeleteMy mother made these, but with one more ingredient. Thinly sliced green onions. Fabulous recipe!
ReplyDeleteAwesome!
DeleteI still need to go to the market. I still want these now.
Deleteu have fantastic recipes here :-)
ReplyDeleteYou lost me with the mayonnaise on this one. Is there something that could be substituted for it, or could it be left out entirely ?
ReplyDeleteMayo is what binds this together. You could try half mayo and half sour cream. The only problem with sour cream is that when baked it turns to mainly water. It will make a mess and leave you with a soggy bottom. It needs at least 1/2 mayo.
DeleteI don't like mayonnaise (or Miracle Whip), either. Would sour cream work as a substitute? (Though I suppose mayo is only egg yolks, vinegar, and a little oil, so maybe it'll taste OK in the muffin???)
ReplyDeleteI dont like mayo much either .. I sometimes sub in a greek yogurt ... or if I have to use mayo , homemade or Hellmans is not too bad.

Deleteyummy i'm thinking maybe cream cheese instead of mayo/miracle whip but this sound so delicious
ReplyDeleteHow many rounds do u get from 1 pc of bread?
ReplyDeleteThe size cutter that I have makes 3 rounds from one slice of sandwich bread.
DeleteI just made these for cocktail appetizers, and they were fantastic. As per a previous comment, I added thinly sliced green onion, and also gave each round a light smear of Dijon mustard before I topped them with the cheese mixture. I made half with bacon, and the other half without, and both were so delicious! This is a keeper for sure!
ReplyDeleteDo you use shredded or grated parmesan for these? Thanks!
ReplyDeleteYou can use either one. I think I used grated in this recipe, but you can use what you like best.
