Use a toothpick, or the end of a scissors (I had to improvise, the toothpick wasn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t making a big enough hole for my liking) to poke a hole in the middle of each cracker. Place crackers on lined baking sheet. You can place them fairly close together, as they do not really expand. Bake for 13-15 minutes or until crispy. Mine could have gone a bit longer\u00e2\u20ac\u201cthey aren\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t quite like the crackers you buy in the store. *note: I used my food processor shredder blade to shred an 8 ounce blade of cheese. It takes about two seconds\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6and since I was already getting the food processor dirty, it was a no-brainer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>1\u00c2\u00a0cup all-purpose flour 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into small pieces 8 ounces sharp cheddar cheese, grated 3\/4 teaspoon salt 1\/2 teaspoon ground mustard (optional) 2 tablespoons cold water In a food processor, pulse everything except water together until it looks like coarse crumbs.
