• Have it neat without too many wrinkles.

• Now..........cover with second piece of foil and slit a few lines through it.
• Place in preheated 350 degree (175 C.) oven for 45 minutes--have a glass of wine and listen to music. Be patient--this baby needs time to develop.
• Pull cover foil off and let the top bake for another 10 or so minutes until the cheese is melted or brown to your liking.
• Pull out and let cool for a bit....then dive into it.
