Time 3h

Yield Makes about 40

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
8 ounces finely grated cheddar cheese (2 cups)
1/2 cup (1 stick) softened butter

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour (spooned and leveled), salt, and cayenne pepper. Add finely grated cheddar cheese and softened butter; work with hands until a dough forms.
  • Transfer to a sheet of waxed paper. Form into a 1 1/2-inch-diameter log; roll up tightly in paper. Refrigerate until firm, about 2 hours.
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Slice dough into 1/4-inch-thick rounds (discard ends, if desired); arrange 1 inch apart on baking sheets. Bake until edges are golden, 16 to 18 minutes; transfer crisps to a rack to cool.
