    Mississippi Cheese Straws


    Source of Recipe


    internet

    List of Ingredients




    -1 stick butter or margarine
    -1-1/4 cups flour
    -1 teaspoon baking powder
    -1 teaspoon salt
    -Cayenne pepper to taste (we used about 1/2 teaspoon and the bite was nice,but not too much)
    -8 ozs. extra sharp cheddar cheese ( I highly recomend Cracker Barrel)

    Recipe



    -Allow butter to warm to room temperature.
    -Grate the cheese with a fine cheese grater
    -Using a mixer, cream the butter.
    -Add the baking powder, salt & pepper.
    -Alternately add the flour and the cheese to make a stiff batter.
    -Using a cookie press and the star setting, squeeze out on a cookie sheet in whatever length you desire.
    -Bake for 10-12 minutes in a 350 degree oven.

    Appetizer Idea:
    -Wrap the batter around a jalapeno stuffed olive and freeze.
    -When frozen, bake in 350 degree oven for 12 minutes or so (lightly browned).
    -These are tasty!!
    -You could do the same with a pearl onion, but I'll stick to stuffed olives.
