Instructions

• If you are making the pimento cheese from scratch, make it first and measure out ¾ cup; otherwise have ¾ cup pimento cheese ready. Preheat the oven to 450°F (232°C). Line one or more rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Spread the frozen waffle fries from the 120-ounce bag in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet(s). If they do not fit on one sheet, use additional sheets or bake in batches so the fries are not crowded.
• Bake the fries 20 to 25 minutes, flipping once and rotating sheets halfway through if needed, until the fries are hot and crispy.
• Remove the baking sheet(s) from the oven. Dollop the entire ¾ cup pimento cheese over the fries in evenly spaced spoonfuls.
• Return the sheet(s) to the oven and bake 4 to 5 minutes, watching closely, until the pimento cheese is melted and beginning to ooze.
• Remove from the oven, sprinkle 3 tablespoons chopped fresh chives over the melted cheese, and serve immediately with pickles.
