📝 Preparation Steps
1
In the bowl of a food processor, combine the cheese, flour, and salt and process for 10 to ⏱️ 15 seconds, until the mixture is finely ground.
2
Pulse in the butter until crumbly, then pulse in the water until the mixture just starts to come together.
3
Transfer to the counter and knead briefly, just until a dough is formed. Divide the dough in half, then cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until chilled, about ⏱️ 1 hour.
4
When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 350°F (180℃) fan assist and have 2 baking sheets set aside.
5
On a piece of floured parchment paper big enough to fit into the baking sheet, roll out one half of the dough into roughly a 9x11-inch (23x28-cm) rectangle. Cut the dough into 1-inch (2½-cm) squares. Trim any jagged edges if you wish to have perfect squares.
6
Transfer the paper with the dough to a baking sheet and spread the squares of dough evenly apart. Using the flat end of a wooden skewer, poke a hole in the center of each square.
7
Bake for ⏱️ 12 - 15 minutes, until the crackers are puffed and golden brown. Let cool while you repeat with the remaining dough
8
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.
