Cheese Wafers with 6 ingredients you already have

Posted in recipes and kitchen tips

I have got a really neat little recipe for you today.  I found this when I was first married and my new hubby and I ate the entire thing in one setting!  Oh, please! Like of none of you out there have never done that.  Anyway, this is neat recipe that is great for potlucks or a side dish or with a vegetable platter  and is really great at Thanksgiving dinners.  It is so easy with ingredients you probably already have.  It is cheesy (in a good way) crunchy with a little kick. 

Cheese Wafers

2 c.  (4 sticks) Butter, softened

1 (1-lb) block sharp Cheddar cheese, shredded

4 c. all-purpose flour

½ t. salt

1-2 t. ground red pepper (depending on how much kick you want)

½ t. paprika

Beat the butter and cheese at medium speed until blended.

All flour a cup at a time blending well.

Add remaining ingredients & blend.

Cover dough & put in refrigerator about 2 hours.

Roll & Shape the dough into 4 (8-inch) logs; cover & chill again for 8 hours or overnight.

Cut into ¼ inch slices & place on ungreased baking sheets.

Bake for 15 min at 350.

Cool on wire racks (or on a plate like I did when I was first married and didn’t have a lot of the kitchen gadgets that I have now)

Store in an airtight container.

This should make about 10 dozen (more or less depending upon who gets into it)
