Blue Ribbon Recipe

These bacon Blue cheese puffs will be a hit at any party. With a fancier feel, they're perfect for New Year's Eve or before a holiday meal. The filling is creamy, tangy, and smoky. It's stuffed inside flaky Phyllo dough. The mix of bacon, Swiss cheese, and Blue cheese gives these bite-size goodies a lovely flavor. All the butter that's brushed on this appetizer doesn't hurt either.
