This little cracker has BIG flavor. I'm quite sure it will be the talk of the table when you serve them!
Ingredients
  • 1 cup all-purpose Flour
  • ½ tsp Sea Salt
  • ½ cup finely grated fresh Parmesan Cheese
  • 4 T unsalted butter
  • ¼ cup cream or half-and-half
  • 1 tsp fresh cracked Black Pepper
  • 1 tsp Black Sesame Seeds
  • Coarse salt for sprinkling
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 400F degrees
  2. Put flour and sea salt in food processor.
  3. Add one tablespoon of butter at a time and pulse between adding each tablespoon until mixture appears "mealy".
  4. Turn food processor to the "on" setting and slowly add cream until the dough sticks together well.
  5. Dough should not be sticky, so add a little flour if you need to. If it is not sticking together, add just a very small amount of cream.
  6. Remove dough from processor and make a round ball with it.
  7. Roll dough out on a lightly floured surface to ¼", or thinner.
  8. Cover a cookie sheet with parchment paper and transfer dough to cookie sheet. Rolling the dough around your rolling pin may make the transfer easier.
  9. Score into your favorite shape with a pizza cutter.
  10. Sprinkle with a little more sea salt or kosher salt.
  11. Bake for 12 minutes, or until light golden brown.
  12. Remove from oven and place the crackers and the parchment paper on a cooling rack for at least 15 minutes until the crackers are completely cool.
  13. Enjoy!
