This was a nice easy appetizer. I use 1/2 the amount of Cayenne and actually think 1/8 tsp would be plenty as it *really* intensified after being heated. I used a nice sharp English white cheddar and after starting with 1/4 cup of mayo (light) I ended up adding 2 Tbsp more (so used 2 Tbsp less than called for). Otherwise made as written and had enough cheese spread for 3 muffins (6 halves). Thanks for sharing your recipe!

I made this recipe as written except I didn't use Cayenne. I thought that there seemed to be too much mayo/mustard for the amount of cheese so added more cheese. After the first batch, we added some chopped olives to some and they were delicious. The next time I make them I will add green onions or chives to give them so colour. Thanks for sharing your recipe. Made for Spring Pick A Chef 2011.
