Time 50m

Yield 100 crackers, 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

Ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour
4 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
8 ounces cheddar cheese
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground pepper

Steps:

Pulse the flour, butter, cheese, salt, and pepper together using a food processor until the mixture resembles coarse meal.
Pulse in 3 to 4 tablespoons of water, one tablespoon at a time, and only enough so that the dough forms a ball and rides the blade.
Remove, wrap in plastic, and chill for 20 minutes or up to 24 hours.
Roll the dough out on a cookie sheet to 1/8-inch thickness. (If you roll it thicker, it will still work, but the crackers won't be quite as crunchy.).
Using a pizza cutter slice dough into 1 inch squares or using a cookie cutter cut out as many crackers as possible.
Bake at 350 F until golden and crisp - 15 to 20 minutes.

Time 30m

Yield 2 1/2 quarts, 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

18 ounces cheddar cheese goldfish crackers
1 ounce ranch dressing mix
3 teaspoons dill weed
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon lemon-pepper seasoning
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2/3 cup vegetable oil

Steps:

Place crackers in a large bowl.
Combine the remaining ingredients.
Drizzle over crackers and toss to coat evenly.
Transfer to a large baking pan.
Bake at 250 degrees for about 15 - 20 minutes stirring occasionally.
Cool completely and store in an airtight container.

Tips:

Make sure to use cold butter and grated cheese, as this will help the crackers stay crispy.
Don't overmix the dough, as this will make the crackers tough.
Roll the dough out thinly, about 1/8 inch thick, to ensure that the crackers are crispy.
Use a sharp knife or pizza cutter to cut the dough into shapes, as this will help prevent the crackers from tearing.
Bake the crackers in a preheated oven until they are golden brown, about 10-12 minutes.
Let the crackers cool completely before storing them in an airtight container.

Making homemade goldfish crackers is a fun and rewarding experience. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a delicious snack that the whole family will enjoy.
