Add the water, and mix until a workable dough is formed. Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth, about 2 minutes. Place in a bowl and cover with a damp, cotton towel or plastic wrap and let rest for 30 minutes. MELT the butter in a skillet over medium heat and cook the onions until they just start to soften, about 5 or 6 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool slightly. Place the onions in a mixing bowl and add the cheese, salt and pepper and mix until it is well blended. Set aside. AFTER the dough has rested, divide it in half and place one half on a lightly floured work surface and keep the other half covered in the bowl. Roll the half you are working with out into a very thin sheet, about 1/16 inch thick. Using a 3" to 3½ inch floured cookie cutter or glass cut out circles of the dough. Save the dough scraps and add to the dough left in the bowl.
