These spicy cheese crisps are a perfect marriage of a cracker and a cookie. They're butter and salt all in one bite. A friend gave me the recipe years ago, and I love to bake them for parties because they're always a crowd pleaser. Yesterday I took them to a birthday party. The cayenne pepper gives them a little kick, you can adjust the amount you add depending on how spicy you want them.
Ingredients:
1 cup flour
3/4 tspn salt
1/4 tspn cayenne pepper
8 oz grated cheddar cheese
1/2 cup softened butter
In a medium bowl mix flour, salt, and cayenne pepper together. Add cheese and butter. Work with hands until dough forms. Transfer to wax paper, form a 1 1/2 inch log, and rollup. Refrigerate for 2 hours. Preheat oven to 400. Slice 1/4 inch thick, arrange 1 inch apart and bake for about 15 minutes.
