Homemade Cheese Crackers

Are you a big fan of cheesy snacks? Well, you’re in luck because these cheese crackers are sure to be a hit!

Prep time: 10 mins

Bake time: 13-15 mins

Total time: 23-25 mins

Servings: 6


– 8 oz shredded cheddar cheese

– 4 tbsps. unsalted butter, room temperature

– 1 tsp. salt

– 1 cup flour

– 2 tbsps. ice water


Directions

Preheat oven to 350˚F (180˚C).

Using a hand mixer or standing mixer, combine cheese, butter, and salt in a large bowl.

Once combined, mix in the flour and add the ice water one tablespoon at a time.

The dough should hold together but crumble apart if you break it up in your hand. If it seems too dry, add a little more ice water.

Separate dough into two halves and pack together into discs. Wrap in parchment paper and chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.

Roll out dough to ⅛ of an inch (½ cm), pinching the cracks on the ends.

Cut into 1 inch x 1 inch (2 ½ x 2 ½ cm) squares and pierce a hole in the middle of each square for ventilation during baking.

Place the separated crackers on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet.

Bake for 13-15 minutes, or until golden brown.

Enjoy!
