Ingredients




Recipe
3/4 cup of sharp cheddar, grated
3/4 cup of parmesan, grated
4 tablespoon butter, softened
3/4 cup of flour
1/2 teaspoon thyme, 1/4 teaspoon if you just want a hint of thyme
1 1/2 teaspoon freshly-ground pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt, plus another 1 teaspoon for topping
1 tbsp coconut milk/half & half

Preparation

1 Preheat the oven to 350 F. 2 Place all your ingredients in a food processor, everything except the coconut milk/half & half. 3 Process until everything is crumbly. 4 Add the coconut milk and pulse until the entire mixture comes together. 5 Next, you want to turn the dough out onto a floured surface. Roll it out to 1/16 of an inch. Do not be afraid to use flour. 6 Cut into 1 inch squares and dock a hole in the center with a toothpick. 7 Arrange them on a sheet. 8 Sprinkle with some salt and bake. Bake for fifteen. Cool for five. 9 As these cool they will get crunchier. 10 Serve to the kids, or the kid looming inside you. And as always, Chow!

About

Thyme |earthy|, Black Pepper |spicy|, and Cheddar |cheesy| is such a delicious combination. Flavors that are reminiscent of the times you could order Mac & Cheese at a fancy restaurant without getting looks, or when you didn't have to pay a mortgage.
