Cheese Straws
1/4 cup butter, softened
2 cups Cheddar cheese, shredded
1/2 cup flour
1/2 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. ground red pepper, optional
Preheat oven to 400°. Coat a baking sheet with cooking spray.
Cream butter and cheese in a large bowl. Stir in flour and salt. Mix well.
On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough out to 1/2 inch thickness (about a 6x8 inch rectangle). Cut into 1/4 inch strips and sprinkle with optional ground red pepper.
Place strips on prepared baking sheet 1 1/2 inches apart. Bake for 10-15 minutes or until crisp. Makes 24 cheese straws.
