Time 1h5m

Yield 24 twists

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/4 teaspoon paprika, plus more for dusting
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
Freshly ground black pepper
8 ounces shredded sharp Cheddar, at room temperature
1 stick unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 tablespoon sour cream
1 large egg

Steps:

  • Position oven racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven and preheat to 375 degrees F. Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Combine the flour, salt, cayenne, paprika, garlic powder and a few grinds of black pepper in a food processor and pulse until mixed. Add the Cheddar, butter and sour cream and process until the mixture forms a ball. Form the dough into a disc, then wrap it in plastic wrap and refrigerate until firm, about 30 minutes.
  • Break off a tablespoon of dough and roll it between your hands or on a work surface to form a rope about 10 inches long. Twist the rope into a pretzel shape and place it on one of the prepared baking sheets. Repeat with the remaining dough to make 24 twists (12 per baking sheet).
  • Beat the egg with a small splash of water. Brush the twists very lightly with the egg wash. Put a little paprika in a small sieve and dust over the twists.
  • Bake the twists, switching the positions of the baking sheets halfway through, until golden brown on the underside and pale golden on top, about 12 minutes.

I'm not a huge fan of cheese, but these twists were surprisingly delicious. The dough was soft and fluffy, and the cheese was perfectly gooey.

These cheesy twists were a bit too salty for my taste. I think I would have preferred them if I had used less cheese.

These cheesy twists were a bit bland for my taste. I think I would have liked them more if I had added some garlic or herbs to the dough.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my cheesy twists didn't turn out as well as I had hoped. The dough was too dry and the cheese didn't melt properly.

These cheesy twists were a bit too greasy for my taste. I think I would have preferred them if they had been baked instead of fried.
