These were excellent!! I had to use my mini bundt cake pans because I couldnt find my other pans but it still worked out great, made 6 of them. I guess because of this I should of put the olives in the bottoms though. The flavor of these were really good with a nice mixture of cheese and olives. Had them for lunch with a nice bowl of soup. I made them the night before and just warmed them up a bit in the microwave. You are right they taste so much better warmed up. Thanks so much for sharing "Jubes" I will definitely be keeping this recipe and using again.
