I can’t remember where I got this Cheese Cookies recipe but it is very good. The touch of cayenne with the cheddar gives a nice zip.
They freeze really well and they’re handy to have them in the freezer.
You can, of course, also serve them right out of the oven after they rest for 10 minutes
My family just loves them and they are just so easy to put together. They are the perfect cheesy cookie to serve at parties or get-togethers.
