HOT MOMMA CHEESE ROUNDS

INGREDIENTS 

• 1 Cup Baby Bel Cheese, shredded
• ¾ Cup AP Flour
• ¼ Cup + 1 Tbsp Butter, diced
• 1 tsp Sea Salt
• 1-2 tsp Hot Momma Seasoning, any flavor
• 2-3 Tbsp Water, ice cold

DIRECTIONS 

In a food processor, add cheese, flour, butter, salt and seasoning.  Pulse to combine and crumble.  Pour in 1 Tbsp ice cold water.  Pulse 3-4 times.  Add another Tbsp and repeat process.  You want a rough dough.  If it hasn’t happened, add a tsp more of water until doughy.  Place dough onto floured surface and knead into a ball.  Cut ball in half.  Place onto 2 sheets of parchment paper.  Roll each ball out to ¼”- ½” rectangle.  The thinner the dough, the crispier the cracker.  Place into 2 baking sheets.  Refrigerate for half hour.  Preheat oven 350*.  Using a small biscuit cutter, make round shapes (or slice with a pizza cutter into squares).  Poke a hole in the middle of each with a toothpick to allow steam to escape.  Sprinkle some additional sea salt and/or seasonings if desired.  Bake 11-15 minutes until edges begin to brown.  Baking time will depend on thickness.  Transfer to cooling rack.  Ac-salsa-rize!
