Cheese crisps

When you’re looking for easy-peasy snacks, baked cheese crisps deliver in spades. Do you have 15 minutes? There’s time to make crisps.
You can use any type of cheese you like. The finished product looks awesome on a charcuterie board. Or, garnish a soup with it. For a twist, sprinkle some seasoning on top before you bake them.
Go roge and crack them up into a salad, or use them as part of your macaroni and cheese topping (use a rolling pin to make the pieces small)
The origins of cheese crisps are murky at best. The theory is they appeared wherever cheese was a staple, quite by accident. When some cheese dripped on the stove and crisped up, wala! A treat was born.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup shredded cheese (more if you’re cooking for a crowd)

Instructions 

  • Heat your oven to 400F
  • Put parchment paper on a baking sheet
  • Portion out the cheese into even-sized mounds (2” in diameter), giving them 1” of space between for melting room.
  • Pat down the cheese so it’s evenly thick.
  • Bake for approximately 5 minutes (the edges will be slightly brown and the cheese wholly melted.
  • Remove from the oven
  • Cool the crisps for 15 minutes before carefully loosening them from the parchment.
  • They are ready to serve!
