MONTEREY JACK CRISPY WAFERS
This is so simple and an incredibly good crunchy, savory treat. You can also use hot peppered Jack cheese for another taste altogether. Great as an appetizer or served with soup.

Steps:
- Cut cheese into l/4 inch slices.
- Space cheese 3 inches apart on a non-stick cookie sheet.
- Sprinkle with garlic powder, to taste.
- Bake 5-10 minutes at 400 degrees F depending on your oven (Watch these closely; Do not overbake).
- Remove immediately and let cool.
- Store in an airtight container.
CHEESE WAFERS
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine the flour, cayenne, and salt in a large shallow bowl. With a pastry blender, cut in the butter until the mixture is the texture of coarse meal. Add the cheese and rub into the flour-butter mixture gently with your fingertips until a small bit of dough, when pinched together, will hold its shape. Roll into 3/4-inch balls, place 1 1/2 inches apart on ungreased baking sheets, then flatten into rounds 1/4-inch thick by pressing with a flat-bottomed glass that has been dipped into flour. (You'll have to keep dipping the glass into flour to keep the dough from sticking to it.) Bake uncovered 10 to 12 minutes until pale tan. Transfer the wafers at once to wire racks to cool, then store airtight.
MONTEREY CHEESE CRISPS
Quick low-carb snack. I find that these work better than some similar recipes that use shredded cheese. The spices on these really 'pop' too - Yum!!!! I've also used Colby-Jack cheese, and it works great.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400*.
- Slice cheese into 1/4-inch-thick slices.
- Place slices 3 inches apart on nonstick baking sheet.
- Sprinkle with garlic powder and cayenne pepper.
- Bake for 10 minutes or until golden brown - watch closely. Making sure they're golden brown is important - this will ensure they 'crisp' as they cool.
- Leave crisps on baking sheet for 2-3 minutes, then carefully place crisps on paper towels to finish cooling.
- These store well in an airtight container.
Tips:
- Use a good quality Monterey Jack cheese for the best flavor. Shred the cheese yourself for the best results.
- Be sure to use parchment paper to line the baking sheets. This will prevent the wafers from sticking.
- Bake the wafers until they are golden brown and crispy. This will ensure that they are cooked through.
- Let the wafers cool completely before serving. This will help them to firm up and become crispy.
- Store the wafers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
Conclusion:
Monterey Jack crispy wafers are a delicious and easy-to-make snack or appetizer. They are perfect for parties or gatherings, and they can also be enjoyed as a quick and easy snack. With just a few simple ingredients, you can make these crispy wafers that are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
