Course: Breads
Keyword: appetizers

Ingredients

  • 8 oz extra sharp cheddar cheese (or a combination of cheese you choose) at room temperature.
  • 1 cup Manny’s Choice Organic Flour
  • 4 tbsp butter, softened
  • 2 tbsp ice water
  • 1 tsp salt (½ tsp in dough, ½ tsp on top after baking)

Instructions

  • Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees. 
  • Using your food processor, add chunks of cheese until it is broken into small pieces. Add flour, salt, and butter and combine. Add water a teaspoon at a time until all the dough comes together in a ball. Use as little water as possible so you get a crispy cracker. 
  • Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate just until the dough is firm. Roll out between two pieces of parchment paper until 1/8 inch thick. Cut into 1 inch squares and poke holes using a toothpick in the center.
  • Place on baking sheet and bake for about 20 minutes until lightly golden and crispy. Check doneness after 15 minutes. Cool on baking sheet and they will continue to crisp up. Salt may be sprinkled on crackers after baking.
