Ingredients

• 2 cups Cheddar cheese (sharp or mild, shredded)
• 0.5 cups Parmesan cheese (grated)
• 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
• 0.5 teaspoons Paprika (optional, for seasoning)
• 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper (freshly ground, optional)
• 1 sheet Cooking spray or parchment paper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with cooking spray.

Step 2

In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded cheddar cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, and all-purpose flour. Mix until the flour evenly coats the cheese.

Step 3

If using, add the paprika and black pepper to the mixture for a subtle hint of spice and flavor. Stir to combine.

Step 4

Using a tablespoon, scoop small mounds of the cheese mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Flatten each mound slightly with the back of the spoon to ensure even cooking.

Step 5

Bake in the preheated oven for 6-8 minutes, or until the cheese mounds melt, spread, and turn golden brown with crispy edges. Keep a close eye to ensure they don't burn.

Step 6

Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the cheese frizzles cool for 5-7 minutes on the tray to allow them to crisp up further.

Step 7

Carefully transfer the cooled cheese frizzles to a plate or airtight container. Serve immediately as a snack or use as a topping for salads and soups.
