Time 32m

Yield 108

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 pound butter, softened
1 pound sharp Cheddar cheese, shredded
1 cup chopped pecans, toasted
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon salt
4 ½ cups all-purpose flour

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, mix together the butter, Cheddar cheese, pecans, cayenne pepper and salt until well blended. Gradually mix in flour, using your hands to work in the last bit. The result will be a stiff dough much like shortbread. Form the dough into logs about 1 inch thick, and 10 inches long. Wrap each log in waxed paper, and refrigerate until firm, at least 3 hours.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Unwrap the chilled logs of dough, and slice into 1/4 inch thick rounds using a sharp knife. Place slices about 1 inch apart onto cookie sheets lined with parchment paper.
  • Bake for exactly 12 minutes in the preheated oven, until firm and slightly browned at the edges. Allow wafers to cool for 1 minute before removing from the pan.

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 stick of butter,softened
8 oz cheddar cheese, shredded
1 c flour
1 c rice krispies, crushed slightly
1/8-1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper
pinch of salt

Steps:

  • 1. Mix all ingredients and form into small balls. Place on ungreased cookie sheet. Press down with fork in criss-cross pattern.
  • 2. Bake at 350 degrees for 10-15 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality cheddar cheese. The better the cheese, the better the wafers will taste. Look for a cheese that is sharp and flavorful.
  • Grate the cheese finely. This will help the cheese melt evenly and prevent it from clumping.
  • Use a food processor to combine the ingredients. This will make it easier to get a smooth and even dough.
  • Chill the dough before rolling it out. This will help the dough to hold its shape and prevent it from sticking to the counter.
  • Bake the wafers in a preheated oven. This will help them to cook evenly and prevent them from burning.
  • Let the wafers cool completely before serving. This will help them to set and become crispy.

Conclusion:

Cheddar wafers are a delicious and easy-to-make snack or appetizer. They are perfect for parties or potlucks, and they can also be enjoyed as a quick snack. With just a few simple ingredients, you can make a batch of cheddar wafers that everyone will love. So next time you are looking for a tasty treat, give cheddar wafers a try.
