Sounds delicious but doesn't look like crackers, looks more like a cheesy bread. How were they?
LOL I couldn't find a rolling pin, so they were a bit thick, but really tasty according to hubby.
Alexis has been wanting to try her hand at making crackers, this is a good jumping off point.
Tell Alexis I was thinking of using self rising flour next time and making them thinner.
oh that sounds delicious! Definitely not on my eating plan. i would eat the whole thing at one time!
I love homemade crackers. The cayenne makes this one look like a must try.
They were good. I was thinking about try self-rising flour and rolling them thinner.
