Thanks for the add Marky90. These cheese straws are going in my save file. I think they will be great on Spaghetti night.

Marky, I was replying to a recipe and I just happened to see this on your page. These looked so very good. You have my 5. Have a great night...cheryl


Yummy!.....this is a good LSU game food ..


These caught my husbands eye as he was walking past the computer. They look pretty good to me too! I was wondering if I could just squeeze the dough out of a freezer bag with the corner snipped off as I don't have a cookie press? What do you think? thanks for the post.

I never knew these would be so easy to make! I will never buy store bought ones again.

YUM YUM.

The only modification i did was add in some chopped chives to the batter. It went really well with the cheese. :)
