These cheese straw wafers are incredibly easy to make, and with a delightfully soft crumbly buttery and cheesy interior and a beautiful golden crust, you had probably double up on the recipe — or make several batches!

Easy to make, these rich and buttery cheese wafers with a golden crust will disappear in no time
Ingredients:
- 1 cup finely grated sharp extra-old Cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup unbleached white flour
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/2 to 1 teaspoon cayenne
Instructions:
Preheat an oven to 400°. In a medium bowl, mash together all of the ingredients with a fork until well blended. Transfer the mixture to a pastry bag (or a ziploc bag with a 1/2-inch hole cut in one corner). Pipe onto an ungreased baking sheet in 12 to 14 lines about 3 to 4 inches in length. You can then lightly press the dough with a fork or leave as is. Alternately, you can shape the dough into 12 to 14 small balls or logs and flatten them. Bake for 12 minutes or until lightly browned. Let cool on a wire rack before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature.
