Emmenthaler Swiss Cheese Bread


A quick and easy appetizer that will have everyone asking for more

INGREDIENTS
2 cups Emmenthaler Swiss cheese, finely grated (4 ounces)
1 tablespoon cream or half and half
1 medium egg
1 pinch paprika
1 twelve inch long baguette

METHOD
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and place an oven rack in the middle of the oven. Cut the baguette in half crosswise and then each piece length wise, yielding four 6 inch long pieces.

 In a medium bowl, beat the egg with a fork for 70 times to fully fluff it up, add the cream, the cheese and paprika, mixing well. Spread the mixture evenly over the four baguette portions, place them on a baking sheet and place on the rack in the middle of the oven.

Bake them for 5 to 6 minutes until the cheese has melted and is just beginning to brown. Remove from the oven, cool and cut into serving size pieces. Serve immediately.
