How to Make Bbq Cheese Fingers

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) or prepare a large skillet over medium heat.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the cream cheese, cheddar cheese, BBQ sauce, garlic powder (optional), and hot pepper flakes (optional). Mix until well combined.
  3. Gradually add the flour, mixing until a dough forms. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour, one tablespoon at a time.
  4. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to about ½ inch thickness.
  5. Using a pizza cutter or knife, cut the dough into finger-shaped pieces.
  6. For baking: Place the cheese fingers on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and heated through.
  7. For pan-frying: Add a tablespoon of butter or oil to the skillet. Cook cheese fingers for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown and heated through.
  8. Serve immediately and enjoy!
