I really liked this recipe. I didn't use bacon bits and couldn't find red pepper sauce, but they still turned out well, looked nice and tasted even better :). The only problem I had with them, was when I tried to reheat them the center didn't want to warm up like the rest of it because of the ham, but they still tasted good even then. Thanks Cindy Orley! And happy you won at mycrescentwow, cheesecake was good too.

I love this recipe, everyone thinks you spend much more time than you really do with it. The only thing I add is 1/2 a container(3oz) of "Alouette" soft, spreadable garlic & herb flavored cheese, gives an even richer, creamier consistency! Will be making more or Christmas this week!
