Puddleducks Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 INGREDIENTS: 1 stick plus 6 tablespoons butter (14 tablespoons), room temperature 3 cups sharp Cheddar cheese 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for rolling 1/8 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper, more or less 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce PREPARATION: Put the butter and cheese in the container of a food processor. Add the flour, salt, cayenne, and Worcestershire. Cover and blend thoroughly. If a food processor is not used, put the flour, salt and cayenne in a bowl. Add the butter, cheese, and Worcestershire, and using two knives or a pastry blender, blend thoroughly. Wrap in waxed paper or plastic wrap and chill for at least 1 hour. Preheat oven to 300°. Roll small amounts of dough into a long tube about the width of a straw and cut in desired lengths. Or, roll dough out on a floured surface to about 1/8-inch to 1/4-inch thickness, cut into strips, and gently twist. Arrange the strips on 1 or 2 ungreased baking sheets. Bake in preheated 300° oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the straws are crisp and lightly browned. Remove and let cool. Tip: If you roll them into straw shapes, use a flat block or flat wide dish bottom to roll them uniformly. Makes about 5 to 6 dozen.

Deb Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 Something I do at home is to roll out some ready bought puff pastry (or buy ready rolled), cut into approx 1 cm strips and twist. Put on baking tray with a pinch of paprika (could omit) and sprinkle on grated parmesan cheese (or whatever you fancy). Totally yummy and so easy. At pre-school, we use puff pastry a lot especially for pin wheels filled with what ever you fancy - mincemeat, jam, marmite, cinnamon. Spread it on the rolled out pastry, roll up like a swiss roll, cut into circles, place on baking tray and squash down a little. Deb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
