CHEESE WAFERS

Steps:

• Combine all dry ingredients in a medium bowl.
• Cut in shortening until the size of little pebbles.
• NOTE: I often grate frozen butter and stir it in with a fork rather than cutting in shortening.
• Mix in grated cheese with a fork.
• With a fork, stir in worchestershire sauce.
• Add ice water and quickly stir into a ball.
• Knead with hands, adding more ice water as needed, until smooth and pliable like pie crust dough.
• Do not handle any more than necessary.
• Divide dough in half and form into 2 logs about 1-1/2 inches in diameter and 8 inches long.
• Wrap in waxed paper.
• Place in airtight container (such as a zip bag) in the refrigerator until ready to bake.
• These can be made days ahead.
• When ready to bake, preheat oven to 400 degrees.
• Grease cookie sheets.
• Slice wafers off log and flatten to desired thinness (about 1/8 inch.
• Bake about 10 to 12 minutes or until starting to lightly brown.
• Let cool just slightly on cookie sheet to firm up; but best when served warm.
