Zubereitung von Carolyn's Spicy Cheese Cookies
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) of softened unsalted butter and 1 cup of shredded sharp cheddar cheese until light and fluffy.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 - 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (adjust to taste).
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing gently until just combined. Stir in 1 cup of puffed rice cereal.
- Roll the dough into 1-inch balls. Place them onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each cookie.
- Flatten each ball slightly with a fork, creating a criss-cross pattern.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
