| 1 ½ cups | shredded aged white Cheddar cheese |
| ¾ cup | unsalted butter, at room temperature, cut into cubes |
| 2 tbsp | plain brick-style cream cheese, at room temperature |
| 2 tbsp | Better Than Bouillon® Sautéed Onion Base |

Preheat oven to 375˚F. Using electric mixer, beat Cheddar and butter until smooth. Beat in cream cheese, Roasted Onion Base, egg, mustard and parsley until smooth.
Spread heaping teaspoonful of cheese mixture over half of the baguette rounds. Cap with remaining baguette rounds. Spread remaining cheese mixture over top and sides of sandwiches.
Place sandwiches on parchment paper–lined baking sheet, about 2 inches apart; spray lightly with cooking spray.
Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm.
Tips: For Bacon Cheese Dreams, top each sandwich with half a slice of bacon. Garnish with a sprinkle of chives if desired.
