Steps:
- In a food processor or in a large bowl with a pastry blender pulse or blend flour and salt. Cut butter into small pieces. Add butter to flour mixture and pulse or blend until mixture resembles coarse meal. Measure 1/3 cup goat cheese, reserving remainder for serving, and break into small pieces. Add cheese to flour mixture and pulse or blend until mixture just begins to form a dough. Halve dough and roll out each half between sheets of parchment paper into a 12- by 10-inch rectangle (about 1/8 inch thick). Chill rectangles in parchment on baking sheets until firm, about 30 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Transfer 1 rectangle of dough on baking sheet to a work surface and remove top sheet of parchment. Working quickly and using a ruler as a guide, cut rectangle into 1 1/4-inch squares without separating squares. (If dough becomes too soft to work with, freeze or chill on parchment and baking sheet until firm.)
- Bake crackers on parchment and baking sheet in middle of oven until golden, 15 to 20 minutes. Cool crackers on parchment on a rack. (Crackers will continue to crisp as they cool.) Cut and bake more crackers with remaining rectangle of dough. With a spatula carefully remove crackers from parchment. Goat-cheese crackers may be made 5 days ahead and kept in an airtight container at room temperature.
- Spread crackers with reserved goat cheese at room temperature and top with tapenade.

Tips:
- Choose the right thyme. Fresh thyme is ideal for this recipe, but you can also use dried thyme if you don't have any fresh on hand. If using dried thyme, use about 1/3 of the amount called for in the recipe.
- Don't overwork the dough. Overworking the dough will make the crackers tough. Mix the dough just until it comes together, then form it into a ball and wrap it in plastic wrap. Refrigerate the dough for at least 30 minutes before rolling it out.
- Use a sharp knife to cut the crackers. A sharp knife will help you get clean, even cuts. If your knife is dull, the crackers will be more likely to crumble.
- Bake the crackers until they are golden brown. The crackers should be baked until they are golden brown and crispy. If you bake them too long, they will be dry and brittle.
Conclusion:
These goat cheese and thyme crackers are a delicious and easy snack or appetizer. They are perfect for parties or gatherings, and they can also be enjoyed as a simple snack at home. The crackers are crispy and flavorful, and the goat cheese and thyme add a delicious savory flavor.
