Ingredients:

• 8 ounces cheddar cheese
• ¼ cup unsalted butter
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 2-3 tbsp ice water

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 375° F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
2. Mix the cheese, butter, and salt with a hand mixer until combined.
3. Add the flour and mix on low until pebbly.
4. Slowly add 2 tablespoons of the water and mix as the dough forms a ball. If needed, add the additional tablespoon of water a little at a time until the dough forms.
5. Divide the dough into two pieces and roll each into a very thin 10x12-inch rectangle.
6. Cut the rectangles into 1-inch squares, then transfer them to the baking sheets.
7. Bake for 15 to 17 minutes, or until puffed and browning at the edges.
8. Immediately move the crackers to wire racks to cool completely, then store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.

Loosen your belts, ladies and gentlemen.
