Intro: Easiest Ever 3 Ingredient Cheese Cookies

Most of the people love cheese - it just makes everything better! Same with these cookies - just three simple ingredients and you get delicious yellow treats.

STEP 1: Gather Ingredients

100 g butter (room temperature)
100 g cheese
100-150 g wheat flour
Parchment paper or oil for greasing
Grater

You can make more cookies taking same amounts of butter, flour and cheese and then adding extra flour as needed.

STEP 2: Grate Cheese

Grate the cheese into as small chunks as possible. Set aside.

STEP 3: Mix 2

Mix 100g flour and all of the butter together. Try repeatedly pushing the flour into the butter - after a little while it will stick together. Don't melt the butter! It has to be in a room temperature.

STEP 4: Add Cheese

Add grated cheese. If the mass seems too sticky and wet, add more flour.

STEP 5: Shape

You can make different shaped cookies but this is one of the options. Roll the dough into evenly sized small balls. Then roll the ball between your hands for a few times like a play dough, so it looks like a thick sausage. Then - make a crescent shape!

STEP 6: Bake

Place cookies in a cookie pan - greased or lined with parchment paper. Bake in 200 C until cookies turn golden. Don't burn them - cookies can get bitter.

STEP 7: Snack!

Let cookies cool - they taste just as good on the second day!

Cook time for me was about 8 minutes. It can be hard to tell when they are done because the cheese makes them appear fluffy and wet - pull one out and either break it in half or use a toothpick to check. These need salt if unsalted butter is used - I sprinkled a bit of coarse sea salt on top. I tried a few sauces on them for dipping and my favorite was honey mustard dressing.

They tasted very good and what few were left were still crunchy after 4 days in a Tupperware container. Thanks for sharing!

Yeah, cooking time can differ a bit (because of the oven or the size of cookies) - that's why I didn't mention specific numbers. :) I also don't add salt, because the cheese has it anyway and it is healthier for the kids - but I have thought of adding chili powder for myself, as I like spicy food. :)
