Ingredients Needed

Butter: You will want the butter to be softened to room temperature, but not melted! Sharp Cheddar Cheese: Use a block of your favorite sharp cheddar cheese and shred it freshly yourself. This will ensure that the cheese melts seamlessly into the dough! Salt: For an extra savory snack! All Purpose Flour: I used regular, all-purpose flour here. If you need gluten-free cheez it’s, use a cup for cup replacement flour! Cold Milk or Water: You can choose to use cold milk or water here. Milk will lend a richer taste.

Tips for Success

Don’t skip the chill time! In order to get that crunchy, flaky texture, the dough needs to be cold before going into the oven! Use a fluted pastry cutter for the classic cheez its edges! If you want a sprinkle of coarse salt on the top of the crackers, add it before baking! Otherwise, the salt will not stick to the crackers.
