List of Ingredients




• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/8 teaspoon ground red pepper
• 1/2 cup butter
• 8 ounces sharp cheddar cheese
• 2 tablespoons poppy seeds
• 2 tablespoons sesame seeds
• 1 egg white
• 1 tablespoon water


Recipe



Combine flour, salt and red pepper in medium bowl; cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add cheese; mix well. Shape dough into circle; wrap in plastic food wrap. Refrigerate 2 hours or overnight.


Heat oven to 350°. Roll out dough on lightly floured surface to ¼-inch thickness. (It will be hard to roll at first, but will soften. Press together any cracks that form on edges of dough.) Cut dough with 1½-inch cookie cutters or pizza cutter into desired shapes (squares, triangles, circles). Place onto ungreased baking sheets.


Combine poppy seeds and sesame seeds in small bowl. Beat egg white and water together in another small bowl. Brush cut-outs with egg white mixture; sprinkle with seed mixture.


Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until very lightly browned around edges. Immediately loosen from pan. Cool on pan.
