I love cheese straws!

They are better after couple days to ripen.

Enjoy!

I used to make them with pecan halves, yummy!

ummmm..could someone post a recipe?

I got mine at All Recipes.

You can also search this site for cheese straws.

Don't you wonder how something so easy can taste so good? I throw the ingredients in the food processor and it makes a ball in about two minutes. Sometimes I make them into balls and flatten them out and make a thumb print in each and fill it with jalapeno jelly. Double yum!

Although these are good, I think Cheez-its are JUST as good, and I'm sure buying the little crackers costs at least half as much, not to mention the time.

I doubt that I will make them again.

I have made the first two recipes. The second one, my mother used to make that recipe all the time. And the last one I have had at a party. All three are great!

Cheese Tea Biscuits

2 C. sharp cheese, grated
2 C. flour
2 C. rice cereal
2 sticks butter, softened
1/2 tsp. red pepper

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Mix all ingredients together. Roll into a roll about 2-3 inches thick.
Cover with plastic or aluminum foil and refrigerate until it becomes
hard. Slice into thin tea biscuits. Bake in preheated oven on an
ungreased cookie sheet for about 10 minutes. Do not cook until brown or
they will be overdone. Makes about 36.

Cheese Pennies
Yield: 3 dozen

1/2 cup butter or margarine, at room temperature
1/2 pound grated sharp cheddar cheese, at room temperature
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 envelope dry onion soup mix
cayenne pepper
pecan halves optional

Combine butter and cheese and mix well. Add rest of ingredients, except pepper and pecans. Add a few grains of cayenne pepper. Mix thoroughly. Divide into 4 pieces. Roll each into a cylinder (silver dollar size), wrap in foil and freeze. To serve, partially defrost roll, cut slices 1/4 inch thick, top with pecan halves if desired and bake on a greased cookie sheet at 400 degrees F for 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from pan while warm to prevent breaking.

Cheese Walnut Wafers

4 oz cream cheese, softened
8 oz. blue cheese, crumbled
1/4 cup butter, softened
1 and 1/2 cups flour
Pinch of salt
1 tsp. ground red pepper
2/3 cup walnuts, crushed
2 egg yolks, beaten

Combine cheeses and butter and mix until blended. Slowly add
flour and remaining ingredients until well blended. Shape into 2 log
shapes and chill for at least 8 hours. Cut dough into 1/4-inch slices
and bake for 12 minutes at 350 degrees on an ungreased baking sheet.

***I never rolled them into a log and refrigerated.
I just pinched off amt the size of a walnut and rolled them in the palm of my hand, then pressed them with a fork to flaten OR flatten when a pecan/walnut halve.
