They’re ideal for just about any occasion, from lunchtime to party time. Set out a bowl of them with a party spread, pack them in a school or work lunch or grab a box and have a late-night snack.
How To Make Cheez
Make the Dough. Add freshly shredded cheese, flour, cubed cold butter , and salt to a food processor. First, pulse until the mixture resembles sand. Then, slowly add water as you continue to pulse, until a dough forms.
Wrap & Chill the Dough. Shape your Cheez-Its dough into a disc, wrap it in plastic, and refrigerate it for 20 minutes or up to a few hours.
Cut Dough in Half. Keep half of the dough chilled while you work with the other half.
Roll Out the Dough. Place your dough onto a floured sheet of parchment, then place another sheet on top . Use a rolling pin to roll out the dough evenly, aiming for less than-inch thick.
Score the Dough. Lightly score the dough with a ruler or toothpick, creating a grid of ~1-inch squares.
Cut Dough into Squares. To add some flair to this copycat Cheez-Its recipe, I used a pastry wheel to cut fluted edges! Or you can use a pizza cutter to cut straight lines.
Add Crackers to a Baking Sheet. Prepare a lighter-colored baking sheet with parchment & cooking spray. Arrange your crackers with space between them, then poke a hole in each cracker & sprinkle with coarse salt.
Bake Cheez-Its for 14-16 Minutes at 350°F. They should be crispy & lightly brownedand the browner you let them get, the crunchier theyll become! Repeat this process with the remaining dough when desired.
