Cheese Cookies

Another fridge clearance activity, Cheese cookies. Got the original recipe from http://www.recipeeworld.com/cheese-cookies-recipe.html.

Its not those typical sweet cookies, but rather a savoury type. Done a little modification to it to fit my raw materials inventories. So I half the recipe and change some of the items.

Ingredients:

• 125 grams (4.4 oz) of low protein flour
• 100 grams (3.5 oz) butter
• 1 tablespoons cornstarch
• 30 grams (1.1 oz) no Edam cheese, uses a mix of parmesan powder and a slice of cheddar that is shredded
• 1 egg yolks
• 1/2 tablespoon powdered milk
• 1/8 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/8 teaspoon fine salt

Topping:

• 20 grams (0.8 oz) no grated cheddar, uses parmesan powder again

Top Coating:

• 4 egg yolks, mix well (totally forgot tis part, so mine omitted tis step)

Directions:

1. Mix the flour, cornstarch, milk powder, fine salt and baking powder and stir well.
2. Enter the margarine, egg yolks and Edam cheese into the flour mixture, stir and knead briefly by hand until dough is formed that can be rolled.
3. Take a pinch of dough, form with two hands to form a long stem, wrap the dough to form a circle.
4. Put the dough which has been formed on a margarine-coated baking sheet. Brush the cookies surface with egg yolk as coating and sprinkle the top with grated cheddar cheese.
5. Bake dough in an oven with 160 degrees Celsius (320 degrees Fahrenheit) of temperature for 25 minutes or until the cookies dough is cooked and golden browned. Take them out, let cool.
