Apache Cheese Bread

I’ve been making this recipe for years out of Celebrations on the Bayou! I didn’t have my cookbook and wanted to make it for game day. Thanks for posting it!! It’s our go-to hot dip!

This is a wonderful hot dip.I followed the recipe for the dip itself, exactly.I used a Sourdough round because my grocer didn't have an Italian round. This was very easy to prepare.The flavor was unique, a nice change from the usual cheesy hamburger dip.I served it with tortilla chips and the left over bread chunks, that I toasted the last 8 minutes of cook time. The next time I make this, which will probably be for the Holidays, I will take the top of the bread off for the last 10 minutes of cook time but I will also leave the top on the baking sheet too, cheesy side up. Yumm! Thank you for posting Kaykwilts! -
I've made this recipe several times over the years and it is wonderful. The flavors all compliment each other very well and it presents well on a buffet or appetizer table.

I'm originally from Tennessee but moved to Louisiana when I married my husband. In addition to cooking I enjoy making quilts, sewing, reading, and gardening. I have an immense collection of cookbooks but find the majority of my recipes online. I like it that they are rated. I am the mother of three children. My son is now with the Lord. My two girls are grown and married. My youngest has two young children.
