Who would have ever guessed that making your own crackers would be so easy and much more delicious than any store bought box?!
I gave it a go and they turned out to be fabulous. The most difficult part was deciding on which herbs to put into the dough. The possibilities are endless.
The Chicken Cheese Ball is a recipe borrowed from my friend Rebecca. We always look forward to the gatherings she will be attending because we know she will bring her signature dish, Chicken Cheese Ball.
