I am a guy and an occasional cook - I tried this out, and it was wonderful and so simple. I didn't have oatmeal, so I ground some breakfast oats, and it worked! I imagine you can substitute the cheshire with your favorite ripened cheese, and it will be just as wonderful. Thank you so much for this recipe!
