Cheese Wafers

 

Recipe By :Jean Anderson, CL# 9360

Serving Size : 0 Preparation Time :0:00

Categories : Appetizers & Snacks

 

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

2 1/2 cups sifted flour

3/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 pound unsalted butter -- cut into slim pats

1/2 pound Parmesan cheese -- freshly and finely g

 

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine the flour, cayenne, and salt in a large

shallow bowl. With a pastry blender, cut in the butter

until the mixture is the texture of coarse meal. Add the cheese and rub into the

flour-butter mixture gently with your fingertips

until a small bit of dough, when pinched together, will hold its shape. Roll

into 3/4-inch balls, place 1 1/2 inches apart on

ungreased baking sheets, then flatten into rounds 1/4-inch thick by pressing

with a flat-bottomed glass that has been dipped into

flour. (You'll have to keep dipping the glass into flour to keep the dough from

sticking to it.) Bake uncovered 10 to 12 minutes

until pale tan. Transfer the wafers at once to wire racks to cool, then store

airtight.
