So Todays plan had been to clean up the office/ guest room but they decided to give me a huge window for when they were going to bring the new dishwasher out so that put my cleaning plan on hold. So I decided to work on crackers. My son is a huge fan of goldfish crackers and I found a recipe to make my own at home and love t so much better than the store bought ones!
What you need
8 ounces of cheese shredded
4 Tablespoons butter cut not cubes
1 cup of flour
3/4 teaspoon salt
2 Tablespoons of water
Thats it!
Put everything but the water in a food processor or if like me you don't have one a stand mixer works very well :)
after it looks like the first picture kind of like sand, you can add water one tablespoon at a time. wrap it up and let it chill for 20 min or so.
roll it out and cut into cute shapes. I made flowers and hearts this time. I only roll out a small amount at a time.
they do puff up a little bit so I roll the dough thin. The original recipe I found said to bake for 15min, Which burnt mine to a crisp! I go more for 8-10 min tops.
Totally worth a try if you like to make things yourself and control whats going into them. My son seems to enjoy these even more than the store bought ones.
Happy Baking!
Jillian
