Easy Cheezy Crackers

Ingredients
  

  • 6 oz sharp cheddar cheese - grated
  • 4 tbsp unsalted COLD butter - cubed
  • 2 tsp Knorr Zero Salt Bouillon - divided
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp ice water
  • 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper - optional

Instructions
 

  • Add the cheese, butter, 1/2 tsp of Knorr Zero Salt Bouillon, flour, ice water and cayenne pepper to your food processor and run for about a minute or until the dough forms.
  • Remove the dough ball and divide in half.
  • Form two discs and wrap each in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for about an hour.
  • Roll the dough out on parchment paper or slipat to a ⅛" thin 10x12 rectangle.
  • Use a pastry wheel or pizza wheel to cut 1" squares. Take a skewer or small pastry tip to poke a hole in the middle of the cracker.
  • Return the cut crackers to the refrigerator for 30 - 45 minutes to allow the dough to firm up so the crackers can be easily moved.
  • Preheat oven to 350º F.
  • Once the dough is set, peel the crackers from the parchment paper/silpat and transfer to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silpat leaving about ¼ inch between each cracker.
  • Bake for 14 - 15 minutes or until just golden.
  • Allow to cool slightly then place in a paper bag with 1 1/2 tsp of Knorr Zero Salt Bouillon and shake to coat. Serve and enjoy!
