These little bites of cheesy yummyness were frequent additions to my tea room table. They look very appetizing on a platter or on a three tiered server. I served them both ways. My customers loved them!

How To Make olive cheese balls

  • Step 1
    Preheat oven to 400 deg. Combine all ingredients except olives. Pinch off a small amount of dough and form into a 1-inch ball. Press an olive into the center of the dough ball. Wrap mixture around olive. Be sure the olive is completely covered. Place on an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake 10 - 12 minutes. These freeze well unbaked.
