- 1 1/4 C flour
- 1/4 tsp baking powder
- 1 stick butter, cold and cubed
- 1 1/2 C shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or colby)
- ice water
- 1/4 tsp kosher salt

Wrap with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Mix in a small bowl the salt and desired herb. Lightly flour the word surface and roll out the dough about 1/4 ” thick, then sprinkle on the salt/herb mixture. Gently roll the seasoning into the surface of the dough and cut out to desired shape. Place on an ungreased cookie sheet and bake for 12-14 minutes until golden brown and puffed.
