The deliciousness of cream cheese and red velvet combined is almost too much to bear. Almost. This stacked recipe is something of a labour of love, with Brown-Eyed Baker suggesting, "it helps to spread the work out over a couple of days" but the results certainly look worth the effort.

No, your eyes are not deceiving you. Yes, that is tiny portions of macaroni cheese encased in ravioli. Dan, the Boston-based blogger behind this carb-laden genious, puts it best when he says "If this incorporated pizza I think my head would have exploded."

BEER CHEESE SPREAD

Some time ago it seems America got hold of the French recipe for Mornay sauce and sexed it up like only America can - With beer.
A favourite in Kentucky, it's used as a dip for the likes of pretzels, crudites and crackers. The Beeroness has a simple, 'foolproof' version of the dish while Food Wishes goes for the whole shebang, including garlic, Tabasco sauce and flat beer. The blog does admit, however, that "very few love Kentucky Beer Cheese at first bite."

The quintessential English party food filler, cheese straws seem to be loved and loathed in equal measure. For the naysayers who find them too dull and dry, this recipe adds a pinch of crushed red chili pepper to the mix - ideal to dip in your cooling beer cheese sauce (see above).

THE PERFECT CHEESEBOARD
Style Me Pretty Living via Pinterest
Believe it or not, there's an art to compiling the perfect cheeseboard. There are rules too, such as keeping the cheese at room temperature for at least an hour before serving. And, as cheese supremo Jacquelyn Clark points out, it's best to "keep the super pungent cheeses on a plate by themselves" to prevent them from overpowering the milder cheeses.
