Ingredients
The following ingredients have 60 Servings
- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened at room temperature
- Couple dashes hot sauce
- 10-ounce block of cheese (Cheddar, Swiss, Pepper Jack, Monterey jack or any combination), shredded
- 2-1/4 cups cake flour (see note below to substitute all-purpose)
- 1/4 teaspoon of Cajun seasoning (like Slap Ya Mama), or cayenne pepper, or to taste, optional
- 2-1/2 cups Rice Krispies or crushed plain cornflake cereal
Instruction
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Add the hot sauce to the butter and cream with a mixer; add the cheese to the butter mixture; beat just until combined.
- In a separate bowl, sift the flour, Cajun seasoning and cayenne pepper together.
- Add the cereal to the flour mixture and stir.
- Add the cereal/flour mixture to the butter mixture about 1/2 cup at a time, until combined.
- Break off small pieces (about a teaspoon) and roll into a ball. Place on an ungreased cookie sheet and bake at 350 degrees F for about 20 minutes, or until lightly browned.
- Let cool on the sheet for a few seconds, then transfer to a cooling rack.
- Makes about 4 to 5 dozen or so - depending on how small you roll them and how many you eat along the way. Recipe may also be halved.
