This is my mother's recipe for delish spicy cheese straws. They are wonderful and savory with a kick of spice! They last for months in a sealed container. They make a great snack or hors dourves. Ingredients:
2 1/4 cups butter (melted) |
3 lbs sharp cheddar cheese (finely shredded, bring to room temperature) |
5 cups flour |
2 teaspoons salt |
2 1/2 teaspoons ground red pepper (adjust to taste) |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350. 2. Melt butter in the microwave. 3. Combine warm butter, salt, red pepper and room temperature cheese in a food processor. 4. Add in flour and blend until mixed well. 5. Press thru star shaped cookie press in a continuous ribbon onto a non-stick cookie sheet. 6. Bake at 350 degrees for 12 - 20 minutes until slightly crusty(depending on oven). |
