Mozzarella Dippers

Now I know this sounds very cheap of me but my girlfriend Amy's sister went to

McDonald's once and bought some - you guessed it - mozzarella dippers. I tasted one and I liked them but I was enraged when I found out that you only got three small dippers for £1.29! I just couldn't get my head around how they could justify that price. So I set to work on making my own version! At my local supermarket I could get all the required ingredients for £2.28 (bar salt and pepper, but if you dont already have that then I can't help but wonder why you're here?) and this made a whopping 15 dippers! Working out at roughly 15 pence a dipper! Result! So happy I was with my victory and it's tasty outcome that I decided I to share it.
