Pecan-Rosemary-Cheddar Buttons combine nutty pecans and earthy rosemary to create a robust riff on the average Cheddar cheese straw. Ingredients:
2 1/2 cups (10 oz.) freshly shredded sharp cheddar cheese |
1/2 cup butter, softened |
2 tablespoons half-and-half |
1 teaspoon kosher salt |
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour |
2 cups chopped toasted pecans |
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh rosemary |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°.
2. Beat cheese, butter, half-and-half, and salt at medium speed with a heavy-duty electric stand mixer until blended. Gradually add flour, pecans, and rosemary, beating just until combined.
3. Turn dough out onto a well-floured surface. Divide into 4 equal portions, and flatten each into a disk; roll each disk to 1/8-inch thickness. Cut with a 2-inch round cutter. Place 1 inch apart on parchment paper-lined baking sheets. Bake 15 to 18 minutes or until golden; cool on baking sheets on wire racks 30 minutes.
