Crispy Cheese Crackers

By deanarrca

Ingredients

• 1/4 cup butter, softened
• 1/4 t. sea salt
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, room temperature
• 1 cup whole wheat flour
• 1/4 t. baking powder
• 1 T. cold water

Preparation

Step 1

Use beaters or food processor to mix butter and salt until creamy. Add cheese. Mix well. Gradually add flour, baking powder and water, mixing until dough begins to form a ball. Form dough into a ball with hands.

Roll the dough into 1/8 inch thickness onto a cookie sheet. (I find that placing the dough between two pieces of parchment paper helps me to roll them out more easily.) Cut the rolled out dough into 1 ½ inch squares. Bake 15 minutes at 350° or until lightly browned. Turn off the oven and leave the crackers inside to crisp up. Store tightly covered.
