Equipment
- Food processor
- Measuring cups
- Measuring spoons
- Knife
- Cutting board
- Baking sheet
- Parchment paper
- Fish cookie cutter
- Toothpick
- Grater optional
Ingredients
- 1 cup Flour
- 1/4 cup Unsalted butter cut into small cubes
- 8 oz Cheddar cheese shredded
- 2 Tbsp Cold water
- 1 tsp Salt
- 1 tbsp White cheddar popcorn seasoning optional
Instructions
- Shred cheddar cheese and dice 1/4 cup (1/2 stick of butter) into 1/2" cubes.
- Add flour, cheese, butter, and salt to your food processor and blend until the mixture is consistent. Add water, 1 tbsp at a time, if the mixture seems too dry.
- Take the mixture out of the food processor and mold it into a flat section, cover with plastic wrap, and cool for 20 minutes. You can leave the dough over night as well.
- Remove the homemade goldfish cracker dough from the fridge and roll it flat - 1/4" thick. Press firmly into the dough to make your goldfish cracker cutouts using your goldfish cookie cutter. Place each goldfish cracker onto your parchment-lined baking sheet. If you'd like, sprinkle on the white cheddar popcorn seasoning and poke a small hole for the eye with a toothpick.
- Bake homemade goldfish crackers for 8 to 12 minutes.
- Let cool and store in air tight container or Ziploc bag for 5 to 7 days.
