Blue Cheese Crackers Recipes

Steps:

• Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and lightly grease with vegetable oil.
• Place butter into a mixing bowl; add Cheddar cheese, Parmesan cheese, paprika, cayenne pepper, and salt. Mix together with the back of a spatula until thoroughly combined.
• Mix flour into cheese mixture with a fork until crumbly. Sprinkle in cold water, 1 or 2 drops at a time, and mix with spatula until it comes together in a dough that holds its shape when squeezed.
• Transfer dough to a work surface and press into a thick, flattened disk. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Roll dough out on a floured work surface to about 1/8-inch thick. Use a pizza cutter to cut 1-inch wide strips from the dough. Cut strips crosswise into rectangles about 1 1/2-inches long. Use the back of a bamboo skewer to punch 5 small holes into each cracker. Arrange crackers onto prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until crackers are browned and crisp, about 15 minutes. Let stand about 3 minutes for crackers to cool and release from the foil. Let cool completely before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F
• With a mixer on medium speed, cream together cream cheese and butter until light and fluffy.
• Add cayenne, blue cheese, flour, rice cereal, and bacon (if using) and beat on medium-low speed until well blended.
• The dough will be stiff.
• Roll 1-tablespoon portions into balls and place slightly apart on baking sheets.
• Flatten each ball with a fork.
• Bake until crackers are golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Using electric mixer, beat cheese, butter and pepper in medium bowl until just blended (some cheese should still be in separate pieces). Using rubber spatula, mix in flour, then chopped pecans. Form dough into 1-inch balls. Arrange rounds on ungreased baking sheets. Flatten to 2 1/2-inch rounds. Press pecan half onto each. Bake until golden on bottom and at edges, about 35 minutes. Transfer to racks and cool.

Steps:

• In a preheated 350 degree oven toast 1/2 cup pecans, about 7 minutes, and cool.
• Finely chop toasted pecans
• In a bowl with a fork cream butter and Saga until smooth.
• Separate egg. Add egg yolk, stirring until combined well.
• Add flour and chopped pecans and stir until mixture just forms a dough.
• Halve dough and on separate sheets of waxed paper form each half into a 12 by 1 1/4-inch log, using waxed paper as a guide. Freeze logs, wrapped in waxed paper, just until firm, about 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees and lightly grease 2 large baking sheets.
• Cut logs crosswise into 1/4-inch thick slices and arrange slices about 1/2-inch apart on baking sheets.
• Top each cracker with a remaining pecan half, pressing lightly into dough .
• Brush tops of crackers, including pecans, with lightly beaten egg white. Bake crackers in batches, if necessary, in upper and lower thirds of oven, switching position of sheets halfway through baking, until golden brown, about 12 minutes total.
• With a spatula transfer crackers to paper towels to blot and transfer to a rack to cool.
