Cheese Bites

These were what I made for The Dish Washer's family Christmas. I found them to be very good. I messed up and didn't carefully read my recipe, so be sure you look closely and use 1/2 block of cream cheese instead of 1 whole block of cream cheese. :)

Cheese Bites

*Tip- Use a piece of dental floss pulled taut to cut chilled cream cheese. (I used this tip and it is really helpful!)

1/2 (8 oz.) block of cream cheese
1 (16.3 oz.) can refrigerated flaky buttermilk biscuits
1/2 c. jalapeno pepper jelly

Cut cream cheese into 24 pieces, and let soften. Separate each biscuit into thirds, making 3 rounds. Press biscuit rounds into bottom and up sides of 24 mini-muffin cups. Spoon about 1 tsp. pepper jelly into center of each biscuit cup; top each with 1 cream cheese piece. Bake at 425 for 8-10 minutes or until golden brown. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.
