  1. Crispy Cheddar Crackers

    8 oz shredded cheddar

    1 cup all-purpose flour

    1/2 tsp fine salt

    1/2 stick (2 oz) butter, cold and cubed

    2 TB milk

    salt for topping

    Add the flour, cheddar, and salt to a food processor and pulse briefly to combine. Add the cold cubed butter and pulse until the mixture looks dry and sandy. Add the milk and pulse just until it comes together into a clumpy dough that holds when pressed.

    Turn it out and roll thin, about 1/16–1/8 inch.

    Cut into roughly 1-inch squares (fluted cutter works well). Transfer to parchment-lined sheet trays and poke a small hole in the center of each cracker.

    Lightly sprinkle with salt.

    Bake at 325°F for 15–20 minutes until crisp and lightly golden.

    If you try this, or any of my recipes, I’d love to see how it turns out over at r/LetsCookie

    Thanks, I’ll try this. What happens if you let it puff up without making those holes in the center?

    I’ve made something soy but add either chipotle powder for a kick or thyme, roll into a log to slice and bake. The logs also freeze well!
