HOMEMADE CHEDDAR AND PECAN CRISPS



Homemade Cheddar and Pecan Crisps image

Categories     Appetizer     Bake     Cheddar     Pecan     Chill

Yield makes about 100 crisp

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 pound extra-sharp cheddar, grated
1 cup plus 1 tablespoon butter
1 1/3 cups pecans
Kosher salt
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/4 teaspoons cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  • Coarsely grate the cheddar cheese, and transfer it to the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Cut the two sticks of butter into sixteen pieces, and scatter the pieces over the cheese. Let the cheese and butter soften. Place the pecans in one layer on a baking sheet, and toast them in the oven until they are a shade darker and fragrant, 7 to 8 minutes. While the nuts are still warm, transfer them to a medium bowl and toss with the remaining tablespoon of butter (the hot nuts will melt the butter) and salt to taste. Cool the nuts completely, then finely chop.
  • Add the chopped pecans, flour, a pinch of salt, cayenne, and black pepper to the bowl of the mixer, and beat the ingredients at medium speed until the mixture pulls together into a dough, about 2 minutes.
  • Divide the dough into eight pieces. On a sheet of waxed paper, roll each piece of the dough into a log 1 inch in diameter, and wrap the logs tightly in waxed paper and foil. Chill the logs for at least 8 hours and up to 1 week. The dough will keep frozen for 2 months.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  • Working with one log at a time, cut the log crosswise into 1/8-inch-thick slices, and arrange the slices 1/2 inch apart on parchment-lined baking sheets. Bake the crisps in batches until they are golden and just firm to the touch, 10 to 12 minutes. Cool the wafers on the baking sheet. Stored in an airtight container at room temperature, the wafers will keep for up to 4 days.

SPICY CHEESE CRISPS



Spicy Cheese Crisps image

Since this dough keeps well, you can slice and bake just what you need savory snacks to serve with wine or cocktails.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Appetizers

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.

Tips:

  • Use a sharp knife to thinly slice the cheddar cheese. This will help the cheese melt evenly and create a crispy texture.
  • If you don't have a rolling pin, you can use a wine bottle or even a glass to flatten the dough.
  • Be careful not to overmix the dough, as this will make the crackers tough.
  • Be sure to prick the crackers with a fork before baking. Otherwise, they might puff up and lose their shape.
  • If you want a more flavorful cracker, you can add some herbs or spices to the dough. Some good options include rosemary, thyme, garlic powder, or paprika.
  • If you're short on time, you can use store-bought pizza dough instead of making your own.

Conclusion:

These cheddar pepper crisps are a delicious and easy-to-make snack that is perfect for any occasion. They're crispy, flavorful, and just the right amount of spicy. Plus, they're made with wholesome ingredients, so you can feel good about eating them. So next time you're looking for a satisfying snack, give these cheddar pepper crisps a try.
