BEST CHILI CHEESE DIP RECIPE EVER

The original recipe listed original cream cheese, but I purchase jalapeno flavor cream cheese.  I tried it with and without; but I prefer the spicy version of the dip, I love the simply made ,yet delicious, spicy, flavors of the Jalapeno cream cheese mixed with this chilli and cheddar cheese. I never imagined how great they would taste together. I guess for those that don't like spicy things,  you can try the plain cream cheese instead of the jalapeno; either is delicious. As you can probably guess, this dip gets made every time I have the ingredients on hand, and an excuse to to make some dip . So what will your excuse be?

So, here's the recipe I came up with. Hope ya like it!

Chicken Cordon Bleu never had much appeal to me.  I'm not a big fan of ham, so whenever I saw Chicken Cordon Bleu recipes, in the past, I never bothered to look. Then one day I had some extra frozen chicken, saw this recipe, and instead of doing my usual "Skip", I decided to give it a try since it looked so easy.

The smells coming from my oven were heavenly. The crescent was scrumptious.  The flavors mingled perfectly, and needless to say this recipe was the highlight of dinner.
