Cheesy Artichoke Baguette Bites

Sometimes you just need cheese. And LOTS of it. You know what I mean? Those days where you just want to stuff ALL the cheese into your mouth and call it a day? Well, now that I’m a big ol’ grownup, I can’t go stuffing cheese into my mouth 24/7 and I have things called responsibilities that dictate my cheese consumption hours. Growing up is rude. 

I feel like I’m blabbering, but what I’m trying to get to is that you should eat these. 

You can get in maximum cheesiness but in the grownup way. In fact, they even can be categorized by the fancy French name of hors d’oeuvres… So that makes you gain sophistication and class just by eating them, right? Just go with it. I’ve been studying like a madwoman for over a week straight and don’t have enough mental energy to type up a coherent post. 

CHEESE.  

This recipe is literally bursting at the seams with cheese. Let’s count: mozzarella (1), cream cheese (2), and, of course, parmesan (3). They all melt together in cheesy symphony to make the best appetizer ever! And then you place that delicious mixture on top of fresh baguette slices, toast it, and holy heck. Please, someone catch me as I faint. 

These are dreamy straight out of the oven and combine all the best of artichoke dip with everyone’s favorite bread. Remember when I professed my entire apartment’s love for baguettes? I’m 100% serious when I say we actively refer to ourselves as the “baguette babes”. The other day I found this gem on the internet machine and HAD to share it with them. I think my other bread-lovers will all appreciate this photo roundup called “Baguette Me Not“. Here’s a sample picture:

Also, did I mention this recipe calls for pancetta? If you don’t have it or want to leave it out of the recipe, that’s fine. It means we can’t be friends anymore, though. Just kiddin’.
