List of Ingredients
4 tablespoons softened butter
1 teaspoon paprika
dash cayenne pepper
1 cup extra sharp cheddar cheese
1 cup mild cheddar cheese
1 cup flour
50 whole black olives
50 small chunks of pepperoniRecipe
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. In a medium bowl beat the butter until very soft and smooth. Add the paprika and cayenne and blend. Add the cheeses and mix well. Stir in the flour. Take an olive and insert the chunk of pepperoni.
With your fingers wrap about 1 1/2 teaspoons of dough around the olive, leaving a small part of it outside the dough to form an iris on the eye (use the pepperoni stuffed opening for the part that is seen for the best effect). Roll the mixture into a smooth ball and place one inch apart on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake until the cheddar pastry is firm and crispy, but not browned, about 12 minutes. Serve hot or cold.
