I’m always looking for a great appetizer to serve during parties and games, and these are really delicious – and so easy to make.

Honestly, what’s not to love? These are filled with cheesy goodness and you can make them in just under an hour. Served with marinara dipping sauce, they make the perfect anytime snack.

With their buttery garlic taste, these pull apart knots are sure to be the hit of your next get-together. Even as an after school snack, they’re perfect. Not too filling so they won’t ruin your dinner and just the right amount of yummy in every bite. The seasonings are what really make them delicious.

I just really love the ease of this recipe. It makes enough to serve about 10 people or so, which makes it the perfect party food. And, you could totally adjust it with different spices or even a sharper cheese if you want to alter the flavor just a bit.
