CHEDDAR CHEESE CRACKERS

My son may not be convinced these can substitute for the ubiquitous orange crackers sold commercially, but I'll take the homemade version any time.

Categories     easy, appetizer

Time 20m

Yield About five dozen crackers

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup whole-wheat or whole-wheat pastry flour
1/3 cup unbleached all-purpose flour (more as needed)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon sugar
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into 1/4-inch pieces
1 cup tightly packed grated sharp Cheddar cheese (4 ounces)
1/4 cup tightly packed grated Parmesan (4 ounces)
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 eggs

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment. Sift together the flours, salt and sugar, and place in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade. Add the butter, and pulse until the mixture is crumbly. Add the cheese, and pulse several times to distribute it evenly throughout the flour mixture. Turn on the food processor, and add the olive oil and eggs. Stop the machine when the dough comes together. It will be soft and somewhat sticky. If it seems very moist, add another tablespoon of flour and pulse until incorporated.
  • Lightly flour your hands and your work surface. Scrape out the dough and form two equal pieces. Shape into rounds, wrap in plastic and let rest for 15 minutes.
  • Roll out each piece of dough between pieces of lightly floured parchment. Cut into squares or rectangles, and place on the parchment-lined baking sheets. Bake 15 to 20 minutes, switching the pans after the first 10 minutes from front to back and top to bottom. They will foam in the oven because of the cheese, but that will subside and they will bake crisply. The crackers are done when they are lightly browned. Remove from the oven, and cool on racks. Store in an airtight container.

Categories     Appetizers

Time 1h20m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup all purpose flour, plus more dusting
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, cubed and chilled
8 oz white cheddar cheese, shredded
⅓ cup fresh chives, thinly sliced
¹⁄₈₂ teaspoon red pepper flakes
4 tablespoons ice water, divided, plus more as needed
1 large egg
leaf shaped cookie cutter, 2 in (5 cm)
star shaped cookie cutter, 2 in (5 cm)

Steps:

  • Add the flour, salt, and baking powder to the bowl of a food processor. Pulse a few times to combine. Add the butter and cheddar and pulse until well combined and the consistency is crumbly, with the butter and cheese broken down to uniform pieces throughout. Add the chives and red pepper flakes and pulse to combine.
  • Add 3 tablespoons of ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, and pulse until the dough comes together. It should hold together on its own but crumble when you press it between 2 fingers. If the dough is still too dry, add more water, 1 teaspoon at a time, until the desired texture is reached.
  • Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and shape into a disc, then wrap in plastic wrap. Transfer the dough to the refrigerator to chill for 30 minutes. Set 2 baking sheets in the refrigerator to chill while the dough is resting.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and 1 tablespoon cold water. Set aside.
  • On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to ⅛-inch thick, pinching together any cracks around the edges. Using a 2-inch leaf and/or star cutter, punch out as many crackers as you can. Gather up the dough scraps and roll out again, repeating the process up to 3 times.
  • Line the chilled baking sheets with parchment paper, then transfer the crackers to the pans. Brush the crackers with the egg wash.
  • Bake the crackers for 20-22 minutes, or until golden brown. Let cool completely, then store in an airtight container at room temperature (with a silica packet inside to absorb excess moisture) for up to 5 days.
  • Enjoy!

CHEDDAR AND CHIVE ROUNDS



Cheddar and Chive Rounds image

Categories     Herb     Bake     Cheddar     Spring     Chive     Gourmet

Yield Makes 16 finger sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 7

6 oz finely grated extra-sharp Cheddar (1 1/2 cups)
1/2 cup mayonnaise
6 tablespoons finely chopped sweet onion
32 thin slices firm white sandwich bread
3/4 stick (6 tablespoons) unsalted butter, softened
2 bunches fresh chives, very thinly sliced (3/4 cup)
Special equipment: a 2-inch round cookie cutter

Steps:

  • Stir together Cheddar, mayonnaise, onion, and salt and pepper to taste.
  • Cut out a round from each bread slice with cookie cutter. Arrange 8 bread rounds on a work surface and divide half of Cheddar mayonnaise among them, spreading evenly to edges. Top each with a plain round. Cover sandwiches with plastic wrap and make more in same manner.
  • Spread a thin layer of butter around cut edges of rounds and roll in chives, pressing with your fingertips.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. The better the ingredients, the better the crackers will taste. Look for sharp white cheddar cheese, fresh chives, and all-purpose flour.
  • Don't overwork the dough. Overworking the dough will make the crackers tough. Mix the ingredients until they just come together, then stop.
  • Chill the dough before baking. Chilling the dough will help the crackers hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much in the oven.
  • Bake the crackers until they are golden brown. The crackers should be firm to the touch and have a slightly crispy texture.
  • Let the crackers cool completely before serving. The crackers will be easier to handle and will taste better once they have cooled.

Conclusion:

These white cheddar and chive crackers are a delicious and easy-to-make snack. They are perfect for parties, picnics, or just a quick bite to eat. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can enjoy these tasty crackers at home.
