This has been a favorite for years. It's my signature appetizer. Ususally I cook the bacon until just before it starts to get crisp before wrapping the water chestnuts, then I pour the sauce over them and let them marinate a few hours or overnight before cooking. This way you can do almost all of it ahead of time. You can even do all the prep except the baking and freeze until you need them.

YUM! This was so good and I'm not a huge soup fan. I replaced the bouillon and water with three cans of low sodium beef broth and added a cup of ditalini pasta towards the end. Great change of pace from boring vegetable soup!

I made this for a casual cocktail party. It was a huge hit! Both men and women loved it. I did use my own cooked chicken breasts and half of the cheese. Great with Frito's scoops! So much less mess than traditional hot wings.
