During the holiday season we seem to constantly be on the run and we have lots of friends and family popping by so this is a terrific recipe for those times when you need something fast but tasty, so you don’t have to spend all your time in the kitchen but you can still impress your guests! These cheese turnovers are wonderful as an appetizer or for dessert, and they just take a few minutes to make.
All you need are a few simple ingredients!
I really like to make these with Edam cheese, but Gouda or any other soft dessert cheese will work just fine.
