Gluten Free Crispy Cheese Cracker Recipe

1/2 cup butter, softened at room temperature
8 oz sharp Cheddar cheese, shredded
1 cup gluten-free flour*
1 tsp kosher salt

Smash together the softened butter and shredded cheese in a bowl. You can use a potato masher. Continue smashing until the mixture is creamy.

Add the flour and kosher salt, smash until you can form a dough ball with the mixture.

Divide the dough ball into 4 equal parts, then roll each one into a log that's 1 inch in diameter. Wrap the logs in plastic food wrap, then seal in zipper bags. Put in freezer until the dough is semi-frozen.  It's easier to slice that way.

Remove from freezer. With a sharp knife, cut logs into thin circles and place on an ungreased baking sheet.

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

When oven is hot, bake the crackers for 10 to 12 minutes, or until light golden brown.

Remove and cool before serving or storing in airtight containers.

Will make about 6 dozen crackers.

*Try almond flour for a nice nutty taste.
