A fantastic recipe, a bit different from the others on the site, as it contains more spices. I usually have these in the lounge before settling my guests down for dinner, and they always go really quickly. I don't remember where I got it from, but it's certainly a favorite and I'll be making them for Christmas eve!
These are best made the day before, and popped in the oven just before you need them.
Make sure the cheese mixture completely seals in the olive.
07Repeat with remaining olives.
08Place the cheese-wrapped olives on a parchment-lined baking sheet and place in freezer until frozen. If you are planning to bake immediately, place in the freezer for about 15 minutes.
09Once frozen, you can store in resealable plastic bags in the freezer until you are read to bake them.
10Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
11Prior to baking, remove olive from the freezer and allow to stand at room temperature for approximately 15 minute (while the oven is heating).
12Place olives on a baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool to slightly warm.
