Ingredients

• 24 pieces Green olives (pitted)
• 1 cup Shredded sharp cheddar cheese
• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter (softened)
• 1 cup All-purpose flour
• 0.5 teaspoons Paprika
• 0.25 teaspoons Garlic powder
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 1 tablespoon Water (if needed)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded cheddar cheese, softened butter, flour, paprika, garlic powder, and salt.

Step 3

Mix the ingredients together using a fork or pastry cutter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

Use your hands to knead the mixture until it forms a smooth dough. If the dough feels too dry, add water, one teaspoon at a time, until it comes together.

Step 5

Take about 1 teaspoon of dough and flatten it in your palm.

Step 6

Place a green olive in the center of the dough and wrap the dough around it, rolling it into a smooth ball. Repeat with the remaining olives and dough.

Step 7

Arrange the dough-wrapped olives on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 1 inch of space between each snack.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the dough is golden and crisp.

Step 9

Remove the snacks from the oven and let them cool for 5 minutes before serving.

Step 10

Serve warm or at room temperature and enjoy your cheesy olive snacks!
