crackers Ingredients
1 cup all-purpose flour
12 cup Land O Lakes® Butter, softened
12 teaspoon salt
18 teaspoon ground red pepper (cayenne)
1 (8-ounce) package (2 cups) Land O Lakes® Sharp Yellow Cheddar Cheese, shredded
How to make
-
STEP 1
Combine flour, butter, salt and cayenne in bowl; beat at medium speed until mixture forms dry, shaggy dough. Add cheese; continue to beat thoroughly, pressing loose crumbs together to shape dough into 1-inch-thick disk. Wrap in plastic food wrap. Refrigerate 2 hours or overnight.
-
STEP 2
Heat oven to 350°F.
-
STEP 3
Roll out dough on lightly floured surface to 1/8- to 1/4-inch thickness. (It will be hard to roll at first, but will soften. Press together any cracks that form on edges of dough.) Cut dough into 2-inch circles. Spare pieces of dough may be gently reshaped to cut out extra crackers. Place, 1 inch apart, onto ungreased baking sheets.
-
STEP 4
Bake 15-17 minutes or until lightly browned around edges. Immediately loosen crackers on pan; let cool on pan. Store in airtight container at room temperature or frozen.
Tip #1
For crisper crackers, roll dough closer to 1/8-inch thickness. For a heartier cracker, roll dough closer to 1/4-inch thickness.
