Cheddar Cheese Cookies

Chanced upon this recipe in Baking Wonderland from Facebook.  These cookies really have a strong taste of cheddar in it and is also slightly salty.

 

I made mine with and also without almond slices.

 

Ingredients A)

Shortening 60gm

Butter 220 gm (softened)

Icing 60 gm

3 egg yolks

 

 

 

Ingredients B)



Milk Powder 2 tablspoons

Plain Flour 380gm

Corn Flour 50 gm

Cheddar Cheese shredded 125gm

 

 

1 egg beaten as eggwash

 

Method

 

1. Prepare grated 125 gmCheddar Cheese if you are using a block cheese instead of ready packed shredded cheese.

 

2. Beat A ingredients till smooth using an electric beater.

 

 

2.  Add B ingredients and knead till it becomes a soft dough. I used a spatula, then by hand to make a smooth dough

 

 

 

3.  Flatten the dough between two plastic sheets by using a rolling pin. Do not flatten too thin or else the cut out cookie will break.

 

 

Arrange cookies onto lined tray.  Then apply egg wash.  You can also decorate with almond slices before baking.

 

 

Bake at 150 degree Celcius for about 20 mins or till golden brown.

 

This can make 2 or more containers full of cookies.  Yummy and easy to make! Enjoy baking them!
