Crisp, buttery, and loaded with nutty Gruyère, these homemade cheese crackers practically melt in your mouth. They're easy to make, fun to share, and perfect for stashing away before your next party or get-together.
Grate the cheese in a food processor. Add the butter and process to combine. Add the flour, rosemary and ¼ teaspoon of salt. Pulse until clumps form.
Place the dough on some plastic wrap and form it into a 9 inch square. Refrigerate for at least 20 minutes.
Preheat oven to 350º and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
Place dough on a lightly floured surface and roll to ⅛ inch thickness. Using a pizza cutter or a fluted pastry wheel, cut into 1 inch diamonds. With a knife or skewer, make a hole in the center of each cracker.
With your fingers, dab some water onto each cracker and then sprinkle with coarse salt.
Bake for 10-12 minutes until lightly browned. Allow to cool on a rack.
Barbara's Notes + Tips
If you refrigerate it for longer than 20 minutes, let it sit on the counter for 15 minutes before trying to roll.
