Number Of Ingredients 6

1 tsp cayenne pepper
1 tsp salt
3 c sifted all-purpose flour
1 1/2 c butter, softened to room temperature
3 c finely grated sharp cheddar cheese
1 1/2 c crispy rice cereal

Steps:

  • 7. Place on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper.
  • 8. Press the balls flat with a fork or the bottom of a flour covered glass.
  • 9. Bake in a preheat oven at 350 for 15 minutes or until golden.
  • 10. Allow to completely cool.
  • 11. Store in an airtight container.
