Chedder Crackers

Yummm! These are far from low calorie but they are soooooo good. I like to put them in the baskets with cookies and fudge at the holidays because like fudge, they are to be enjoyed in moderation... or not ;)

Cheddar Crackers

-6 oz or 1.5 cups of EXTRA SHARP or HUNTERS CHOICE Cabot cheese (do not substitute for cheapo cheese like cracker barrel-they will not taste right)
- 6 tablespoons salted butter
-1 teaspoon Frank's hot sauce (or more to taste)
-1 teaspoon garlic powder
-1 cup all purpose flour (you could try using wheat but we don't)
-1/4 cup sesame seeds

Directions:
-Heat oven to 400 and spray a baking sheet
-Combine all ingredients in a bowl and mix with hands or use your food processor
- Divide the dough in half and roll into two logs that are aprox 1 1/4 inches in diameter
-Roll logs in sesame seeds and wrap in plastic wrap
- Refrigerate logs for at least 30 minutes, then slice into 1/4 in thick slices
-Optional: place fork marks on tops of each cracker
-Place slices on baking tray and bake 10-12 minutes keeping a close eye out so they don't burn.

They are great to use as serving crackers for an appetizer or all alone. Enjoy !
