HANKY PANKY RECIPE

When a caller mentioned that she was making "Hanky Pankies" this weekend for her Superbowl Party, everone wanted to know the recipe! I got a bunch emailed to me... feel free to use whichever you like! (they all seem quite similar... but ya have a few to choose from)

Here they are:

FROM LISTENER CONNIE
1lb ground meat
1lb bob evan's pork sausage (i use the maple flavored as it really gives a great taste) 1lb velveeta cheese

In a skillet brown ground meat and sausage. drain fat. cube the cheese and continue cooking over low heat until cheese melted.
Put little breads on cookie sheet and put spoonful of meat onto the little breads.
These are great to make ahead of time and you can keep them covered on cookie sheet until you are ready to bake them at 350 approximately 15 minutes and then serve!

FROM LISTENER DEB
Use the small 3 x 3 bread-- Rye or Pumpernickel is the best.

also need Velveeta Cheese- sliced,--the amount of cheese and meat is to your preference

Take as much ground meat you need for the quantity of bread, fry till brown with seasons ( salt, pepper & onion cut small) Brown, when meat is brown add the Velveeta cheese till melted and use a teaspoon to spread on the bread-- bake at 300 degrees for about 10-15 minute Remove from oven and eat.


FROM LISTENER MEILISSA
2 pounds Bob Evans Mild Sausage
2 pounds Ground Beef 90/10
1 2# block Velveeta
2 loaves Pumpernickel cocktail bread

Preheat oven to 325 degrees

Brown sausage and beef until cooked thoroughly. Drain all fat.

Cut velveeta into cubes and add to beef mixture a little at a time, stirring constantly until all added and completely melted.

Spoon about 1 TBSP of mixture onto each piece of bread....arrange on cookie sheet and bake until bread toasts slights - about 5-7 minutes depending on the oven!
