Homemade Cheez-Its Recipe With Pictures

Ingredients

  1. 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
    1/4 shredded cheddar cheese (if you don't have cheddar, use whatever kind of shredded cheese you have)
    1 packet cheddar cheese powder from boxed macaroni and cheese
    4 tablespoons butter
    1 tablespoon water

Directions

  1. Heat oven to 250°F.
  2. Mix flour and both cheeses together with a food processor, with a mixer, or by hand.
  3. Add butter and water and mix until the ingredients form a bright-orange dough.
  4. Flour work surface, dump dough out onto it, and roll into a thin sheet, or roll the dough into a thin sheet between two pieces of parchment paper, wax paper, or plastic wrap. Cut the sheet into shapes with a pizza cutter. Transfer each individual cracker to a sheet pan.
  5. Optional: before baking, poke a hole in the top of each cracker to make it look more like the real thing from the store.
  6. Bake for 15-25 minutes depending on how thick your crackers are and how crispy you want them. They should be golden brown around the edges.
  7. Let cool before devouring.
