CHEESY CHICKEN & STUFFING BAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly mist a 9x13 baking dish with cooking spray and set aside.
• Place the chicken breasts in a single layer across the bottom of the baking dish. Tear the cheese slices into pieces and use them to cover the breasts.
• In a mixing bowl, mix together the milk and cream of chicken soup until combined. Pour over the top of the chicken.
• In another mixing bowl, stir together the stuffing mix and melted butter until the stuffing is coated. Sprinkle the stuffing mix over the tops of the chicken.
• Place in the oven and bake uncovered for 35-40 minutes.

CHEESY MUSHROOM STUFFING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender and lightly browned, about 6 minutes. Push the mushrooms to one side of the skillet and add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter, then add the scallion whites, shallot, thyme, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring, until the shallot is softened, about 3 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat and carefully add the brandy. Return to the heat and cook until the pan is dry, about 30 seconds. Let cool slightly.
• Whisk the eggs, heavy cream, chicken broth, garlic, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl. Stir in the bread cubes, mushroom mixture, 1 cup each fontina and cheddar, the scallion greens and parsley. Let sit 30 minutes to allow the bread to soak up the egg mixture.
• Butter a 3-quart baking dish. Add the stuffing and top with the remaining 1/4 cup each fontina and cheddar. Bake until golden brown, about 1 hour. Let sit about 20 minutes before serving.

CHEESY CRAB BITES

Steps:

• Pour the oil into a large heavy-bottomed pot fitted with a deep-frying thermometer.
• Combine the mozzarella, cream cheese, garlic salt and crushed red pepper in a food processor. Pulse until a thick paste is formed, about 30 seconds. Set aside.
• On a lightly floured surface, roll the pizza dough to form a 16-by-12-inch rectangle. Use a 3-inch round cutter to cut out 10 to 12 rounds of dough. Use your fingertips to gently stretch each round of dough into a 4-inch circle. Top a round of dough (slightly off-center) with 1 heaping teaspoon of the cheese mixture and 1 teaspoon crabmeat. Fold the dough in half over the filling to create a half-moon. Press the edges together to seal the pocket and crimp with the prongs of a fork. (See Cook's Note.) Repeat this process with the remaining circles and filling.
• Preheat the vegetable oil to 350 degrees F and line a plate with paper towels.
• Working in batches, carefully lay the pizza pockets in the hot oil. Fry until deeply golden brown, 1 to 1 1/2 minute on each side. Remove from the hot oil to the lined plate to cool slightly.
• Garnish with fresh parsley.

CHEESY HERB AND BEEF BITES

Steps:

• Unfold each beef slice so that it is flat. Spread each slice with 1 teaspoon cheese and 1 teaspoon red bell pepper. Carefully roll up.
• Cut each roll into 4 pieces. Place each beef roll on cucumber slice. Serve immediately.

CHEESY STUFFING CUPS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350ºF.
• Melt butter in large skillet on medium heat. Add celery; cook and stir 5 min. or until crisp-tender. Stir in water. Bring to boil. Remove from heat. Stir in stuffing mix, cranberries and nuts. Add 1 cup cheese and egg; mix lightly.
• Spoon into 8 muffin pan cups sprayed with cooking spray, mounding stuffing mixture as necessary to fill cups. Sprinkle with remaining cheese.
• Bake 10 min. or until stuffing cups are heated through and cheese is melted.

CHEESY STUFFING BITES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Spray cooking spray into muffin tin and line each tin with parchment muffin cups.
• In large skillet, heat olive oil to high heat. Break up sausage in pan, then turn to medium heat just before fully cooked. Add the onion, garlic, and celery and cook all until sausage is done and onions are translucent.
• Add seasoning packet that came with Stuffing mix (or not, if you bought the kind that's pre-seasoned), and add the chicken broth. Let cook for 3 - 5 minutes until simmering, and add thyme and sage just before removing from heat.
• Spoon the mix into muffin tins, filling just 2/3 full. Add an even amount of cheddar atop each muffin, and then top it off with a small spoonful of stuffing. Bake for 25 - 30 minutes, until stuffing is set and cheese is melty.

CHEESY STUFFING

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients together, and shape into 16 balls.
• Bake at 180C for 25 minutes.

SAUSAGE STUFFING CREAM CHEESE BITES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400°F.
• Remove puff pastry from the freezer and allow it to thaw for about 15 min. until you can unfold it without breaking. (Make sure you don't let it get too warm.)
• Prepare the STOVE TOP Stuffing according to instructions on box and set aside. In a skillet on stove top, cook sausage until browned and crumbled, set aside.
• In a large bowl with a hand mixer or stand mixer fitted with paddle attachment, mix together cream cheese and 1 egg until creamed together and smooth. Stir in cooked sausage until fully incorporated. Gently fold in stuffing with a spatula.
• Unfold the puff pastry sheets, roll out each sheet and cut into 12 squares. (The squares don't have to be perfect but each should be about 3-1/2-inch square.) Press 1 square on bottom and up side of each of 24 nonstick muffin pan cups. In a small bowl, whisk the remaining egg with a fork to create an egg wash. Brush the egg wash over the puff pastry, especially the edges. (This will give the pastry a darker golden finish. If you don't use an egg wash that is fine, you'll just get a paler finish.)
• Using a cookie scoop, divide the sausage-cream cheese mixture among the puff pastry cups, using 2 heaping teaspoons of filling per cup. Bake for 12 to 15 min. or until the puff pastry is golden brown. Top with a dollop of cranberry sauce, or serve it on the side. Serve immediately.

CHEESE-FILLED POTATO BITES

Steps:

• In medium saucepan, bring 1 cup water, butter and salt to a boil. Add 1 1/3 cups mashed potato mix, 1 egg and chives; mix well. Let stand 30 seconds. Stir. Cool 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat oven to 400°F. Spoon mashed potatoes into 24 mounds, about 1 tablespoon each, onto ungreased cookie sheet. Flatten into disks. Place 1 cheese cube in center of each potato disk. With pancake turner, remove each disk from cookie sheet; pinch potatoes around cheese cube to form ball.
• In small bowl, beat 1 egg and 1 tablespoon water until well blended. Place 1 cup mashed potato mix in another shallow dish or bowl. Roll balls in potato mix, then in egg mixture and again in potato mix. Place on ungreased cookie sheet.
• Just before baking, spray coated potato balls with nonstick cooking spray. Bake at 400°F. for 10 to 12 minutes or until potato coating just begins to brown. Serve immediately.
