Macaroni Cones

Ingredients:

• 1 cup prepared macaroni salad
• 1/2 cup garlic-flavored croutons
• 30 slices American cheese

Preparation:

• Special equipment: Pie fluter (optional), cellophane-tipped toothpicks.
• Combine macaroni salad and croutons.
• Separate the cheese slices.
• Flute the edges with the pie fluter at this time if you wish to do so.
• Place approximately 1 to 1 1/2 teaspoons of macaroni-crouton filling on each slice, being careful to allow just enough so that the cheese can be easily folded.
• Shape the filling into a line the length of the cheese.
• Roll the cheese into a cone shape and fasten with a cellophane-tipped toothpick.
• Refrigerate until serving time.
• Makes 30.
• Special Hints: For a fancy touch, try trimming the edges of the cheese with a pie fluter.
• This creates an interesting edge and requires very little time. Plus, it`s fun! To prepare the macaroni salad the day before, leave out the croutons. To insure a crunchy texture, add the croutons just before fashioning the cones.
