Homemade Cheddar Cheese Crackers

These homemade cheese crackers are so much more flavorful than store-bought. This is a fun DIY baking project that the kids can also participate in.

Cheese Crackers

Use cheese with a lot of flavor. Aged cheddar instead of a mild one, for instance. Any cheese you can grate will be fine: Parmesan, Swiss, Romano, or any others you like. For a softer cheese, I used Limburger. You could also use a soft blue cheese, goat cheese, or even a Camembert. Or a combination of what's left in your cheese drawer.

Trust me, it'...
