Instructions

Mix all the ingredients for the buttons together in a large bowl.
Place rounded tablespoons full of the mixture on a greased baking sheet. Bake at 350 degrees for 15-20 minutes.
While buttons are cooking, prepare sauteed onions. Place 1-2 tablespoons of butter in a pan, add onions and let saute until caramelized. About 10-15 minutes.
Place baked cheese buttons in a casserole dish, top with cream and sauteed onions. (Don’t be stingy with the cream, the buttons will wallow in all that creamy goodness.)
Bake for another 20 minutes and enjoy!
