I was at a wedding today in upstate Jersey. The bride and groom are old friends, matter of fact THEY stood up for Nan and I when we got hitched in NYC in 2007.
Later as we were saying our goodbyes and well wishes after the reception the bride spoke right up and said, I'd love it if you would send me a big bag of your cheese wafers. So I promised - and I was flabbergasted I could not find the recipe posted. So here ya go, cheese wafers. Your lips will love them - great with cold sodas or a nice wine.
Cheese Wafers
Mis en Place
1/2 lb. salted butter
1/2 lb. sharp cheddar (freshly grated)
6 oz. parmesan cheese (freshly grated)
1 tsp. chinese chili paste
1 large clove garlic (crushed)
1 tsp. salt
1/4 cup water
3 1/2 cups flour
2 cups rice krispies
Preparation:
Cream butter in mixer, add grated cheddar and continue creaming until a homogenous mass. Add parmesan and continue creaming until homogenous, add chili paste, garlic, salt and water and continue creaming. Add flour and cream until smooth. Lastly fold in rice krispies. Roll into 3 logs about 1 inch in diameter, cover and refrigerate 1 hour. Preheat oven to 375.
Slice into 1/4 inch slices and bake 24 to a cookie sheet for 10 minutes. Remove and cool for a few minutes. Flip and bake for 5-7 minutes depending on your oven (theres a point where theyre underdone - a little too moist - and a few minutes later theyre burned - you must determine the exact time you bake time based on your oven and the color and texture you prefer). Remove, cool and store in an air-tight container - keep about 2 weeks. Serve with a hearty red wine or cold beverage.
the only photo I could find of them, they are in big bags in the background, the tasty stuff in front: Big's Parmesan Cheddar Brioches.
