Ingredients
Serves: 36
- 500g tasty cheese cut into small portions
- 3 medium brown onions, roughly chopped
- 1 can of unsweetened evaporated milk
- 1 packet French Onion Soup mix
- 2 loaves of white bread, crusts removed
Directions

- Process the cheese, onion, soup powder and evaporated milk in batches in a food processor until the consistency is that of thick porridge, not too wet, not too dry.
- Empty into a bowl and repeat process until all ingredients have been processed. If the end mixture is too thick, add some more milk, or if too runny, add some more cheese.
- On a slice of bread, (less crusts as the crusts left on make it too hard to roll) spread a small amount of mixture over 3/4 of slice then roll up. The bread should bind with the mixture.
- Grill under griller turning once until brown, then apply a generous amount of butter along top of hot cheese roll.
- These can also be baked at 180 degrees C for 15 minutes.

Waaaaay too much onion. 1 onion along with the soup mix is plenty. Also add in 1/4 cup cream for extra tastiness/badness! - 17 Mar 2012
