    Spicy Cheddar Pecan Wafers

    MAKES ABOUT 30 WAFERS
    These are so good. You can add more paprika or pepper if you prefer more heat.

    INGREDIENTS

    1/2 cup butter, room temperature
    1/2 cup finely shredded sharp or extra sharp cheese
    1 cup all-purpose flour
    1/2 teaspoon sweet paprika
    1/2 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
    1/8 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
    1/8 freshly ground black pepper
    1/4 teaspoon salt, or to taste
    15 large pecan halves, halved again
    Preheat oven to 350° F. In a mixing bowl, cream the butter and cheese until smooth. Add the remaining ingredients, except for pecans, and mix just until well combined. Shape into 3/4-inch balls. Place 2-inches apart on ungreased baking sheets lined with parchment. Using fingers, flatten each ball and top with a pecan piece. Bake until golden, about 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from baking sheet and let cool on baking rack. Wafers can be stored in an airtight container for several days. In fact, the flavor improves the day after baking.
