CRACKERS, CREAM CHEESE, AND PEPPER JELLY



Crackers, Cream Cheese, and Pepper Jelly image

Another childhood favorite of mine for a snack or appetizer. I remember my mom telling my grandma that we should introduce her to "crackers, cream cheese, and pepper jelly" and grandma said, "who are they, your cats?" Lol. This is always a hit. Nowadays with my IBS I'd have to substitute regular or light or fat-free cream cheese with a non-dairy version, such as Tofutti Better Than Cream Cheese. You can purchase the tub and spread the cream cheese from that, or you can buy the brick-style cream cheese (although I don't think Tofutti makes a brick-style) and spread the pepper jelly on top, refrigerate, and then spread on the crackers. I always did it from the tub. Serving size is an estimate, depends on how much of each ingredient you want to use. Cook time is chill time if you use the brick-style. You should be able to find the pepper jelly in the regular jam/jelly section of your supermarket.

Time 35m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

48 wheat crackers (I used Wheatsworth brand)
8 ounces cream cheese (in brick or tub, light, fat-free, regular, or non-dairy Tofutti Better Than Cream Cheese)
8 ounces mild green jalapeno jelly (I think it comes in 8oz jars, but maybe 6oz)

Steps:

  • If using brick cream cheese, you can spread the pepper jelly over the entire brick and refrigerate then place on serving plate with wheat crackers.
  • Otherwise, just spread desired amount of cream cheese on a cracker, then top with desired amount of pepper jelly. Enjoy! :).

Provided by cookingqueen1081

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 32m

Yield 30 crackers, 30 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup all-purpose flour, more as needed
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup finely grated fresh parmesan cheese (alternate ( I think Romano could also work well here)
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/4 cup cream or 1/4 cup half-and-half, more as needed
coarse salt, pepper, sesame (optional) or poppy seed (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 400°F Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly dust with flour. Put flour, salt, cheese and butter in bowl of a food processor. Pulse until flour and butter are combined. Add about 1/4 cup cream or half-and-half and let machine run for a bit until a dough forms. If it does not come together, add more liquid a teaspoon at a time, until mixture holds together but is not sticky. (I only needed the ingredient levels as listed to pull the dough together.).
  • Roll out dough on a lightly floured surface until 1/4-inch thick or even thinner, adding flour as needed. From here, you can either form them into individual crackers (I went for 1 1/2-inch squares cut with a fluted pastry wheel) and bake them an inch apart on your baking sheet (the method I used) or transfer the entire rolled-out sheet to your baking sheet (draping it over the rolling pin will make it easier) and score them lightly with a knife, pizza or pastry wheel to break into crackers after they are baked. For either method, dock all over with a fork and sprinkle with salt or any other toppings you are using.
  • Bake until moderately browned, about 12 minutes. Cool on a rack; serve warm or at room temperature or store in a tin for a few days.

  • Handle the dough gently and avoid overworking it to prevent tough crackers.
  • Use a sharp knife or pastry cutter to ensure even and precise cutting of the dough.
  • Prick the crackers with a fork before baking to prevent them from puffing up excessively.
