Ingredients
- 1-1/2 cups shredded white cheddar cheese
- 1-1/2 cups shredded yellow cheddar cheese
- 4 ounces cream cheese softened
- 1 4- ounce jar diced pimentos drained
- 1/3 cup mayonnaise Duke's Mayo is a southern classic
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic optional, my personal addition
- 1/2 teaspoon cayenne powder or to taste - use paprika for a milder version
- salt and pepper to taste about 1/2 teaspoon each
- Dash of hot sauce optional - Crystal or Tabasco are great here
- 8 sliced white bread
Instructions
- Gently stir together the cheddar cheeses, cream cheese, pimentos, mayonnaise, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, cayenne, salt and pepper in a medium-sized bowl.
- Fold the mixture gently to combine until uniform.
- Taste and adjust for salt and pepper. Add in a dash or two of hot sauce to your preference.
- Divide the pimento cheese between 4 slices of white bread. Spread evenly, then top with remaining slices.
- Slice into into triangles or smaller squares and serve.
Notes
- You can refrigerate the pimento cheese in a sealed container at least 1 hour before serving to let the flavors develop.
- You can also make the sandwiches ahead and keep them refrigerated for serving.
- Wrap the sandwiches in green paper or napkins for mimic the Masters sandwiches.
