Cheese Straws I

Cheese Straws I

3/4 cup butter room temp

2 1/2 cups grated long horn cheese

2 cups flour

3/4 tsp salt

Cayenne pepper, to taste

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.  Whip up butter and then add the rest of the ingredients (except for the cayenne pepper).  Use your hands to mix well.

Squeeze the cheese mixture through a cookie maker using the flat spritz attachment. Or you can roll out one long strip the length of the table and then cut with a knife.  Bake about 12-15 minutes, or until done. They don't brown up.  Before removing from the cookie sheet, lightly shake on cayenne pepper to taste.
