Cheese Squares

Jodies Kitchen Cheese Squares

These delicious little Party sandwiches have been at many Family gatherings.I remember the first time my Mom had made them,I flipped out.I thought it was the best thing since candy. 

I am always late for the party,so by the time I made it to my Brothers Birthday Party,all that was left for me was these 4 lonely little sandwiches.They were already cold and the cheese had sit back up by the time this picture was taken.Normally you eat while still hot or at-least warn and the cheese is still oozing.But since we were having chilli beans that day it was o.k. because they also make the perfect little dunkers for Chilli and Soups.Think of them as KICKED UP Grilled Cheeses.
