Ingrediente

½ cup butter, softened

4 cups shredded Cheddar cheese

2 cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon salt

milk, as needed

¼ teaspoon ground red pepper

Instrucțiuni

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or lightly grease them.

Beat butter and Cheddar cheese together in a large bowl with an electric mixer until creamy and well blended. Add flour and salt; mix until a soft dough forms. If the dough seems too crumbly, add milk, 1 teaspoon at a time, until it just comes together.

Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface. Roll out to ½ inch thickness. Cut into 2-inch strips using a knife, pastry wheel, or cookie press with a star tip for a traditional look.

Arrange cheese straws 1 ½ inches apart on the prepared baking sheets; sprinkle with ground red pepper if using.

Bake in the preheated oven until golden and crisp, about 10 to 15 minutes. Cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
