Steps:
- Beat the butter with an electric whisk until it turns pale. Add the beaten egg and egg yolks, one spoonful at a time, and continue mixing until pale and fluffy. Add the rum and beat together once more.
- Add the remaining ingredients and mix together by hand very gently to pull it into a dough, but be careful not to overwork the mixture or it will become greasy. At this stage the dough should feel quite sticky.
- Dust the work surface and lightly coat your hands with flour. Divide the dough into four equal pieces and roll each into a 2cm wide log. Cut each log on the diagonal into slices approximately 3cm thick. Continue to flour your hands and work surface as you shape each log. Place the biscuits on baking trays lined with baking parchment and chill in the fridge for at least 30 minutes before baking. Preheat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan/gas 6.
- Once chilled, glaze the top of each biscuit with the egg yolk and sprinkle a little extra grated cheese on top. Bake on the middle shelf of the oven for 15-20 minutes or until golden. Remove from the oven and allow to cool on the tray for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
CHEDDAR CHEESE COINS
These snacks are packed with an intense cheese flavor that comes from blending extra-sharp Cheddar with nutty Parmesan. Mild scallions and spicy black pepper bring additional savory notes, which play up that cheesiness. The coins have golden crispy edges and slightly tender centers. They're great for snacking on the go, serving as part of a cheese board or dunking into tomato soup. The recipe can easily be doubled for a holiday cookie swap, and the dough can be made 1 month ahead and kept frozen wrapped tightly in plastic wrap and stored in a resealable plastic bag; simply thaw, cut and bake when ready.

Steps:
- In the bowl of a food processor, combine flour, both cheeses, black pepper, salt and paprika, and pulse until well combined and sandy, about 30 seconds. Add butter and scallions, and pulse just until well blended, about 30 seconds. Continue pulsing and drizzle in 2 tablespoons of ice-cold water just until the dough comes together.
- Transfer dough to a lightly floured work surface and divide in half. Roll each half into a log that is 1 inch in diameter and about 12 inches long. If using sesame seeds, spread them onto the work surface and roll the log over the seeds until lightly coated. Wrap each piece of dough in plastic wrap and chill until firm, about 2 hours or overnight.
- Place racks in upper and lower thirds of the oven and heat oven to 350 degrees. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
- Using a sharp knife, slice chilled logs into ¼-inch-thick slices. Arrange them on the prepared sheets about ½ inch apart. Bake, switching the sheets from top to bottom and rotating halfway through, until golden and just firm (they will continue to crisp up as they cool), 23 to 25 minutes.
- Let cookies cool on the baking sheets for 2 minutes, then transfer them onto wire racks to cool completely. Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature overnight, then refrigerate for up to 1 week. To recrisp after refrigerating and serve warm, heat in a 350 degree oven for 5 minutes.
Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the taste of your cookies.
- Make sure your butter and cream cheese are at room temperature before you start baking. This will help them to cream together smoothly.
- Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the cookies tough.
- Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies to hold their shape.
- Bake the cookies in a preheated oven. This will help them to bake evenly.
- Let the cookies cool completely before you frost them. This will help the frosting to set properly.
Conclusion:
Cheddar cheese cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. With their cheesy flavor and soft, chewy texture, these cookies are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're looking for a simple and satisfying snack, give these cheddar cheese cookies a try. You won't be disappointed!
