Pailles de frômage
Cheese Straws
1 cup flour
¼ tsp salt
¼ tsp baking powder
1/3 cup butter
¾ to 1 cup shredded cheese
1 to 2 tbsp table cream as needed
Sift flour, baking powder, salt; crumble in butter and cheese; add milk when necessary to form a dough. (Freeze butter and then shred like you would the cheese; it will incorporate better and faster into the dough.)
Roll out dough and cut into strips 1/3-inch wide and 3 to 4 inches long. Place on greased cookie sheet and bake in low oven.
**The recipe doesn’t give oven temperature or length of baking time, or type of cheese used. I imagine a good strong Cheddar would be good, and I would definitely keep an eye on them. Good luck!
