Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (205 degrees C). Grease or line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. Combine the flour, baking powder, cayenne pepper, salt, grated cheese and butter or margarine in a bowl and mix until well combined. Add water a little bit at a time to make a very stiff dough.

  3. On a lightly floured surface, roll pieces of the dough into just slightly thicker than pencil shaped sticks. Cut sticks into 4 to 5 inch lengths. Arrange the pieces on the baking sheet.

  4. Bake at 400 degrees F (205 degrees C) for 5 minutes or until browned.

Recipe Yield

4 dozen

Recipe Note

I won't forget the cheese straws that my mother made for my father. The only difference was that she did not add cayenne pepper. These make wonderful hors d'oevres.
