This is a staple recipe in our house, especially during the holidays or any time we need appetizers. These even taste good cold out of the fridge second day!!

I have yet to try this recipe however very anxious to do so. If I have 8 triangles cut x 2 cans, should I not yield 32 pieces?

These were very good and easy to make. I need more practice before I can make them as uniformly as shown though. They were good reheated,too.

I always make these and I change it up too. I do the herb and garlic cream cheese and add some Kraft shredded Mozzarella and Cheddar mixed cheese, with the bacon bits. I also do the Kraft crumbled Fetta with green onion. These are a smash hit at any party I have or go to. I am making them as we speak for my work pot luck!! Next time I am going to try Philly Veggie cream cheese, black olives and sun dried tomatoes with some grated cheddar and see how that works out.

I've made this recipe a few times, but have made the "sweet" version using strawberry cream cheese with walnuts. It's an excellent snack and incredibly simple to make.
