    Went down extremely well with family and friends, and myself of course.They continued raving about how tasty they were for days. Delicious recipe.I wasn't sure about the wensleydale at first but it really does give it a lovely subtle tasty tang. I made sure they were well seasoned and I tried the recipe to the letter.See no reason to change it. Definate family favourite now.
