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:

  • 1. Add the cayenne pepper and salt to the sifted flour.
  • 2. Cut the butter into the flour mix.
  • 3. Work the mixture between your fingers to produce a cornmeal-like consistency.
  • 4. Add the cheese and crispy rice cereal.
  • 5. Continue to combine with your fingers. The more you mix, the more butter-like the dough will become and will better hold the crispies together.
  • 6. Roll the dough into 1 inch balls, working in your hands to press the balls together.
  • 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.
