Deep fry cheese balls
Autumn is almost finish and we are in the middle of the year, I can’t believe how fast time runs
I am sorry if I don’t visit your blog these days, but as I told you before I am baking and cooking. For worse my refrigerator broke yesterday. I really believe in Murphy’s Law.
These cheese balls are very simple and easy to make. Are perfect for appetizer and you can enjoy this recipe all the year.

Oh no! I hope you were able to accomplish much. I am sure the cheese balls (maybe served with a tomato sauce? Yum!) would make all problems go away!
Those look great! Perfect for a party, but I bet they disappear fast!
Absolutely delightful! These would be perfect for a cocktail party.
