Ingredients

  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, cubed and at room temperature
  • 8 ounces sharp cheddar cheese, finely shredded
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper pinch cayenne
  • 1½ cups unbleached, all-purpose flour

Preparation

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the butter and the cheese.
  3. Using a Cuisinart® Hand or Stand Mixer fitted with the mixing beaters/paddle, mix until fully combined.
  4. Add the remaining ingredients and mix on low until combined. Fit the Cuisinart® Electric Cookie Press with desired disc*. Load the cracker dough to the MAX fill line. Press dough out onto an ungreased/unlined baking pan, about 2 inches apart.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until lightly golden around the edges. Cool crackers before removing from pan.

*Note: Due to the shredded cheese in this dough, we recommend using discs 3, 5, 6, 10 or 12.
