@Zhills .... thanks for that update about the apples...what a shame to have them discontinued.  I did Google online and found them available but unsure about ordering from an unknown source.  I guess we find ways to make that combination a different way.  🙁  One thing certain in life...CHANGE!

Southern Pimento Cheese
A great pre-Thanksgiving snack!  Great on cracters or vegetables!

INGREDIENTS

• 2 Cups freshly grated extra-sharp Cheddar cheese
• 8 Oz cream cheese, cut into cubes at room temperature*
• 4 Oz pimentoes, well drained and chopped
• 2 Tablespoons mayonnaise (Duke’s is traditional)
• 1/4 tsp garlic powder
• 1/4 tsp onion powder
• 1/4 tsp ground cayenne pepper (optional) Adds great flavor!
• Salt and pepper, to taste

INSTRUCTIONS

1. In a large mixing bowl or the bowl of your stand mixer, combine the cheddar, cream cheese, pimento peppers, mayonnaise, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper and black pepper.
2. Beat the mixture together with a hand mixer, your stand mixer, or by hand with a sturdy wooden spoon or spatula. Beat until the mixture is thoroughly combined.
3. Taste, and add more black pepper if desired, and/or salt for more overall flavor (I usually add a pinch of two). If you’d like your pimento cheese to have more of a kick, add a pinch of cayenne. Blend again.
4. Transfer the mixture to a smaller serving bowl. Serve your pimento cheese immediately, or chill it in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.

Pimento cheese hardens as it cools!

Let set out of fridge for 30 minutes to soften!

@Zhills 

Thanks for the recipe. I never had pimento cheese, hadn't even heard of it until moving here to the south.  Since then I've had some that was very good and some that was very bad.  I wasn't even sure what was in it, so now I know and I'll try making it myself.
