Y’all, talk about a crowd pleaser! These Cheese Crispies are really simple to make, really simple to make GF, and way too easy to eat too many! These are IMHO slightly better than cheese straws, because they have a crunchier texture, and I’m all about the savory, crunchy treats!

Cheese Crispies:
8oz Sharp cheddar cheese, grated (227g)
1/2cup unsalted butter, softened (113g)
1 cup All-purpose flour (120g)
1/4tsp cayenne pepper
1-1/2 cups crispy rice cereal (40g)
Pinch of salt (2g)

Combine softened butter and cheese until a thick paste forms. Slowly add pepper, salt, and flour, adding 1/3 at a time. Add crispy rice cereal last, in thirds, being careful not to break the cereal too much. Form small balls (silver dollar size) and place on sheet tray covered with parchment paper. Press forms with dampened fork to flatten. Bake at 325F approximately 12-15 min or until lightly browned. Yield: approx. 54 pieces.

Hey y’all!

I know it’s been awhile since you’ve heard from me. Five and a half months, if we’re being specific 😅 I absolutely hate that we’re not sharing the holidays together. So, I’ve come up with a plan🥰

Over the next few days, I’m going to share a few SF recipes. Several of these recipes were published in 2020, when many of y’all decided to become home cooks. Remember that? 😅🤣 I’ll be adding a few extras to the list to make your holidays merry and bright!

Please know this is a small token of my love and appreciation for y’all. I know it’s not the same as coming to the shop and getting the good stuff, but it’s a close second.

Happy baking and don’t forget to buy the good butter! 82% or higher, unsalted. Seriously, it makes a world of difference 🥰
