Ruby's Cheese Tidbits

Vicki G.'s Note:

This is another of my Aunt Ruby's recipes. One of my absolute favorites !!! Just a note, originally the amount of cheese was incorrect. Instead of 1/2 cup it should have said 1 and 1/2 cups.

• Total Time: 1 hrs 15 mins
• Prep Time: 15 mins
• Cook Time: 1 hrs

Ingredients:

Yield: 100 wafers

• 1 cup butter
• ¾ teaspoon salt
• ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 1 ½ cups grated extra-sharp cheddar cheese
• 2 cups plain flour
• 2 cups Rice Krispies

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 325°F.
2. Cream butter and cheese.
3. Add salt, pepper and flour to butter mixture.
4. Mixing briefly with a mixer.
5. Work in Rice Krispies either with the mixer or by hand.
6. Form into small balls(about the size of an olive), placing on a cookie sheet.
7. Flatten each ball with a fork (pressing the fork into the cookie, pulling across-- making little ridges).
8. Keep the fork clean by dipping in flour, if necessary.
9. Bake for about 20 minutes.

Tasty, loved the crunch, but too floury - needs more oomph - maybe add Frank's Red Hot sauce and more cheese/less flour? Will definitely try again! Thanks!
