Cheese Rosemary Crackers Recipe
Cheese platters are the most fun eats at all the parties!! They’re ideal for get-togethers throughout the year, but especially for holiday season, when our to-do list is humongous, and we really don’t have time to slave in the kitchen.
I also have to mention that cheese platters are perfect for date night with your special person. We, my husband and I, crave a good cheese board all the time, just for the 2 of us.
So, as you can see, we are kind of cheese freaks. We always, yes… always, have a wide variety of cheeses in our refrigerator. But guess what? I usually forget to buy crackers!!
And what is a cheese platter without crackers? We all know cheese and crackers is that couple that’s been married for years.
For every problem, there is a solution…Homemade Crackers!!
These Swiss Cheese Rosemary Crackers are super easy to make and versatile. The dough is mixed in about a minute. No kneading! No yeast!
You can add the flavors you like, from different types of cheeses to herbs and spices. I like to under-baked them and made crackers with a crisp-chewy texture, but if you prefer you can also over-baked them to make super-crispy crackers. The best part is they are freezer friendly so you can always have a batch waiting to be baked. These homemade crackers are best enjoyed straight out of the oven, or the next day.
Kaukauna® cheeses come in a variety of flavors and forms – Cups, Logs, & Balls. They’re delicious and easy entertaining solution made with 100% real cheddar. I was only supposed to pick two for this post, but I loved them so much that I couldn’t resist buying more.
For this particular batch, I used Swiss cheese, garlic and rosemary. I also added a touch of cayenne pepper and mustard to spice things up a little, but the kick is very subtle.
Surprise your guests with these Swiss Cheese Rosemary Crackers homemade crackers! Everyone will love their look and taste.
Happy Cooking!!!
