cheez it

Because they incorporate cream instead of the more common butter, these homemade crackers brown more flavorfully as they bake, creating a deep, nutty, grilled cheese sort of vibe. Eat 'em out of hand, or serve with hearty soups, stews, and chilis.

Homemade Cheez-Its Recipe

For the Dough:

flour

baking powder

sugar

(8-ounce; 227 grams) block cheddar cheese, preferably

heavy cream (1 cup; 225 grams)

For the Egg Wash:

water (1 tablespoon; 15 grams)

For the Dough: Adjust oven rack to middle position and preheat to 375°F (190°C). Whisk flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt together in a medium bowl. Toss cheddar with dry ingredients until well combined. Stir in cream, mixing with a flexible spatula until dough comes together. Transfer to a lightly floured surface, knead until pliable and smooth, then divide in half. On a lightly floured surface, roll each portion into a roughly 15- by 11-inch rectangle, no more than 1/8-inch thick. Transfer each to a parchment-lined half sheet pan, then cut into 1-inch squares using a fluted pastry wheel.

For the Egg Wash: Whisk egg, yolk, water, and salt together in a small bowl. Brush over prepared dough, then sprinkle with additional salt to taste. Using a bamboo skewer or chopstick, press a small indentation into the center of each dough square. (This is strictly for a Cheez-It look and is therefore optional.) Bake until golden brown, about 24 minutes. Cool to room temperature and enjoy immediately, or store up to 1 month in an airtight container at room temperature.

&quot;This is a favorite of quite a few of the children I babysit.  It tastes great, is easy to make, only has four ingredients, and kid friendly to boot!

Cheez-it Chicken

chicken tenders

sour cream

Cheez-It crackers crushed

butter

This recipe was given to me by one of my best friends and Riley Roux’s mother, Mikel. Back in the day when Riley, Anthony, and Nick were just little kids, Mikel gave me this recipe and I have been making it ever since. It&#39;s that recipe I go to when I really don&#39;t feel like wasting food and I know everyone will eat it including myself because we are all obsessed with it! It&#39;s interesting how this simple combination of flavors results in such an incredibly delicious dinner. I’m nearly positive this was my second or third recipe I ever posted when I was starting out on social media and Tik Tok. It went viral and everyone loved it then, so hopefully it aged well and you love it too! It&#39;s a keeper, let’s make it!

Cheez-It Chicken

chicken breasts (butterflied)

garlic powder

salt

tsp black pepper

oz grated parmesan

cheez-its

Butterfly your chicken breasts, so that you have six thin pieces of chicken. Season both sides of the chicken with garlic powder, salt, and cracked black pepper.

Grease a baking dish with cooking spray and add your seasoned chicken into the baking dish. Add 2 heaping tbsp of sour cream onto each piece of chicken (6 oz total) and smooth it out to cover the whole piece of chicken. Then, shake the grated parmesan cheese evenly over each piece of chicken.

Add your cheez-its into a ziploc bag and crush them up. Now, pour the melted butter into the ziploc bag with the crushed up cheez-its and shake it around so the cheez-its get coated in the butter. Then, add the buttery cheez-its on top of each piece of chicken to fully cover the chicken.

Bake in the oven at 375°F for 45 - 50 minutes. Enjoy!
