Aunt Erma Lee's Smooth and Creamy Pimento Cheese image

This is a creamy spread that is cooked. My Aunt Erma Lee was a great cook. Feel free to adjust the sugar to your taste. This is a great spread for sandwiches with soup. Try spreading it on buns with hamburgers or sloppy joes for a new twist! Soars above store-bought! Can be kept under refrigeration for up to one week.

I'm not a big fan of pimento cheese, but this recipe was actually really good! The pimentos were not overpowering, and the cheese was smooth and creamy. I would definitely make this again.

I made this pimento cheese for a party last weekend and it was a huge hit! Everyone loved it. I especially liked that it was so easy to make. I will definitely be making this again for my next party.

This pimento cheese is the best I've ever had! It's so smooth and creamy, and the flavor is perfect. I love that it's not too spicy, and the pimentos add a nice sweetness. I will definitely be making this again and again.
