Cheesy Chive Crisps

By: Eve McNew

"'These snack bites are great to keep on hand for guests,' says Eve McNew of St. Louis, Missouri. Since the recipe makes a lot, you might want to freeze some of the cheese logs for future use. Be sure to thaw them in the refrigerator for 2 to 3 hours before slicing and baking."
