Ingredients

• 1 cup All-purpose flour
• 0.5 cup Unsalted butter
• 1 cup Sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
• 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
• 0.5 teaspoon Cayenne pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 2 tablespoons Water
• 1 teaspoon Chili flakes

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cayenne pepper, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and salt. Mix well to evenly distribute the spices.

Step 3

Using a pastry cutter or your fingertips, work the unsalted butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

Add the shredded cheddar cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, and chili flakes to the flour mixture. Stir to combine evenly.

Step 5

Gradually add the water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough comes together. Be careful not to overwork the dough.

Step 6

Place the dough on a lightly floured surface and roll it out to approximately 1/8-inch thickness.

Step 7

Use a small round cookie cutter or knife to cut the dough into wafer-sized pieces. Transfer the pieces to the prepared baking sheet, spacing them slightly apart.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the wafers are golden and crisp.

Step 9

Allow the wafers to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

Serve warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
