1 c All-purpose flour
1/4 ts Salt
1/2 ts Dry mustard
1/2 ts Hot chili powder
1 lg Pinch cayenne pepper
1/4 c Butter or margarine
1/2 c Finely grated Cheddar cheese
1 Egg, beaten
1 tb Cold water
1 tb Sesame seeds
1 tb Poppy seeds
Preheat oven to 400′F. (205′C.). Sift flour, salt and spices
into a bowl. Cut in butter finely until mixture resembles
breadcrumbs. Add grated cheese and mix well. Mix egg with cold
water. Add 2 tablespoons of egg mixture to cheese mixture and mix
to form a fairly stiff dough. Knead gently on a lightly floured
surface. Roll out dough to a 12×6″ rectangle. Trim edges. Cut in
half lengthwise and transfer to a baking sheet. Breush each half
with remaining egg mixture. Sprinkle 1 half with sesame seeds and
the other half with poppy seeds. Cut each half in 10 triangles and
separate slightly to prevent sticking. Bake in preheated oven 10-12
minutes or until light golden and cooked through. Cool on a wire
rack. Store in an airtight container up to 2 weeks.
