Blue Ribbon Recipe

The perfect savory accompaniment for your next brunch or cocktail party! These cheese wafers are savory, buttery, and full of cheese. There is a slight crunch from the Rice Krispies that makes these crackers a little interesting and different from other recipes. If you like things a little spicy, add more cayenne pepper.

How To Make cheddar wafers

Step 1

Mix the flour, salt, and cayenne. Use a fork and cut in the softened butter.

Step 2

Mix in the shredded cheese and Rice Krispies. This will be dry and crumbly.
Step 3

Scoop out about 1 Tbsp of the mix. Use the warmth from your hands to form balls and then slightly flatten them on a cookie sheet.
Step 4

Bake at 350 degrees for 10-15 minutes. Let cool slightly, then transfer to a cooling rack.
