I made these as directed with store brand sharp cheddar cheese. Next time I will use a better brand of cheese, fewer nuts and more cayenne to kick up the flavor.

These are wonderful little cheese cookies. Of course, if cheese is involved, I am sure to like them!!!! Made exactly as directed. Thanks for the great recipe.
