Step 1

Finely shred your cheese with a cheese grater and add to a food processor. Process until cheese is very finely chopped. (This will ensure that the cheese becomes well incorporated in the dough.)

Step 2

Add in flour, salt, sugar, baking powder, paprika, celery salt, and onion powder and pulse until evenly incorporated.

Step 3

Add in butter and 4 tbsp cold water and pulse a few more times.

Step 4

Move the dough to a work surface and knead until it forms a dough that sticks together. If it's still crumbly, add more water in small increments until it comes together. Divide dough in half and shape into two 1" thick discs. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes to an hour.

Step 5

Meanwhile, preheat oven to 350˚F and line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 6

On a floured work surface, roll out each dough disc into a roughly 9-10" by 11" rectangle. It should be about 1/8" thick. Use your cookie cutter to cut the goldfish, and move to a parchment-lined baking sheet and sprinkle with salt to taste. You can re-roll any dough scraps.

Step 7

Bake for 14-16 minutes, until bottoms are slightly browned. Let cool completely on the baking sheet before enjoying.
