Also known as fancy homemade Cheez-its!
I saw this recipe on Joy the Baker a few weeks ago and had a hankering that would not subside until I made them. Cheez-its: another one of those things that I rarely bought in the U.S., but since I can't get them in Jakarta, I inexplicably crave them regularly. I could probably get some sort of cheezy cracker here, but a lot of the crunchy cheese snacks made around here are just... not quite right. And they have MSG in them, which gives them a weird after taste.
Flakey, cheesy, a little bit buttery... these rule. They would be awesome with beers for happy hour.
And easy! They literally have 5 ingredients: cheese, butter, flour, salt and pepper. Mix, chill, roll, cut, bake, snack.
