    Superb Recipe, the first time we did according to recipe and everyone loved it, could not taste the hot. The next time we added a bit more Tabasco and they still loved it! This is a new favorite for our Appetizer recipes!

    I started making this 10 years ago and ever since, everytime I'm invited someplace, I get asked to bring this recipe. I make a few modifications - I use 8 ounces of pepperjack cheese (for the ones that like is spicy). Also use freshly grated parmesan cheese or fancy shredded parmesan cheese instead of the kind that comes in a shaker. It makes a huge difference. Make sure to use extra Tabasco if you like and extra kick (I put Tabasco on everything!) I don't put the tomatoes on and serve with tortilla chips. It is an amazing recipe!
