Okay, I'm a bit confused about whether you are asking for heated,
usually melted, cheese recipes or soft, but usually thicker cheese
items which are spread cold upon bread or something else. Because you
titled this thread "Cheese Goo" which I thought were just those
similar to Digby's Savory Tosted Cheese, but you gave a spread type
recipe.
There is a cheese spread in this file, but it may be one of those you
mentioned:
spreads-msg (12K) 11/29/02 Period spreads for bread. recipes.

There are also the soft, fresh cheeses which have herbs added to them.
fresh-cheeses-msg (43K) 3/28/04 Fresh cheeses such as ricotta,
cream cheese
and cottage cheese. Non-aged
cheeses.

Baked cheeses can be soft enough to spread, but thicker than the
Savory Tosted Cheese/Cheese Goo recipes.
baked-cheese-msg (15K) 6/18/02 Period baked cheese dishes.

Then if you are including the more liquid "Cheese Goo"s there are
more than Digby's version.
