Cheese Dishes

Cobb Loaf Hot Cheese Dip

An appetiser or luncheon dish.

Cook bacon/ham separately, place on a side dish if there are Vegetarians in the group.
1 Cobb Loaf, (whole round loaf)
250 grams of Cream Cheese,
250 grams of Sour Cream,
300 grams Tasty Cheese (grated),
Small Onion or 3 Spring Onions (chopped),
Bacon or ham – 3 rashers (chopped),
Ground Black Pepper,

Slice lid off Cobb, ease fingers around the inside of the crust and lift out bread,
Slice into fingers, slice the lid as well.
Soften Cream Cheese and beat in all other ingredients, place in the loaf shell.
Filled loaf now placed on oven tray, filling tends to dribble down loaf, bake 40 minutes in oven at 150 degrees centigrade, then either place fingers around the loaf and bake further 20 minutes or arrange fingers around loaf at time of baking. Turn bread fingers occasionally to prevent burning.

Arrange cooked filled Cob Loaf on plate with fingers around the base. Guests use the bread fingers as a scoop. Beautiful and fun for all.
