Spicy Cheddar Sticks
Ingredients
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
  • 3/4 cup margarine
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup water
Instructions
1
Preheat the oven to its highest temperature setting, which is 400 degrees F (or equivalently, 205 degrees C).
2
Cover the baking sheet with a non-stick coating or line it with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
3
In a mixing bowl, blend together the flour, baking powder, cayenne pepper, salt, grated cheese and butter or margarine until they form a cohesive mixture. Gradually add water in small increments to achieve a very dense dough.
4
On a surface dusted with flour, shape the dough into sticks that are only slightly thicker than those of a pencil. Cut these sticks into 4 to 5 inch segments. Arrange the cut pieces on the prepared baking sheet.
5
Bake the sticks in the preheated oven for 5 minutes, or until they have developed a brown color.
