SPICY CHEESE WAFERS
My good friend, Ouida, makes these by the dozens. She works for a large group of judges and bakes goodies for the hospitality room at their judicial conferences. She is such a wonderful cook/host and always makes sure a good time is had by all.

Steps:
- 1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Mix cheese and butter on medium speed with an electric mixer until well blended.
- 2. Sift flour with salt and cayenne pepper. Stir pecans into the flour mixture. Add to the cheese and butter mixture and mix until a ball of dough forms.
- 3. Divide the dough into four or five parts and roll each part into a log about the diameter of a quarter. Wrap each log in waxed paper and chill in the fridge for at least two hours or up to two weeks. Logs can also be frozen for up to three months.
- 4. When ready to bake slice the logs in 1/4 inch slices and place on parchment lined cookie sheets or plain cookies sheets that have not been greased. Bake at 350 for 10-12 minutes. Do not allow to get too brown. Cool for about 2 minutes before removing to racks to cool.
- 5. These are delicious served as an appetizer or with tomato soup.
Tips:
- Use a good quality cheese: The type of cheese you use will have a big impact on the flavor of your wafers. Choose a cheese that is flavorful and melts well, such as cheddar, Parmesan, or Gruyère.
- Grate the cheese finely: This will help the cheese melt evenly and prevent it from clumping.
- Use a non-stick skillet: This will help prevent the wafers from sticking and burning.
- Cook the wafers over medium heat: This will help them cook evenly without burning.
- Flip the wafers halfway through cooking: This will ensure that they are cooked evenly on both sides.
- Let the wafers cool slightly before serving: This will help them set and make them easier to handle.
Conclusion:
Spicy cheese wafers are a delicious and easy-to-make snack that everyone will enjoy! Packed with flavor and personalized with optional spicy kick, they are perfect for parties or everyday snacking. With just a handful of ingredients and a few minutes of your time, you can create a memorable treat.
