Cheese crackers
Ingredients:
- 100g unsalted butter
- 100g all-purpose flour
- 100g hard cheese, grated
- 1 large egg yolk
Preparation Steps:
- Gather the following ingredients for the cheese crackers: hard cheese, unsalted butter, all-purpose flour, and one large egg yolk.
- Using a knife, finely chop the cold butter and blend it with the flour until the mixture resembles coarse breadcrumbs.
- Incorporate the grated hard cheese into the mixture.
- Add the egg yolk to the mixture and lightly stir to combine. Then, gently knead the mixture until it forms a cohesive dough.
- Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes to allow it to firm up. After chilling, briefly knead the dough again until smooth.
- Divide the dough in half. Roll out each half into a circular shape.
- Cut the rolled-out dough into equal segments to form cracker shapes.
- Use a cocktail straw to punch decorative holes in each cracker, mimicking the appearance of traditional cheese.
- Preheat your oven to 180°C (356°F) and bake the crackers for approximately 10 minutes, or until golden and crispy.
- Enjoy these savory cheese crackers as a delightful snack with sweet coffee or as a perfect pairing with your favorite beer.
Enjoy your meal!
