Sometimes those cheese cravings hit and that's when you need this savoury cheese and paprika biscuits recipe! They're perfect for snacking on and great for buffets, picnics, after school snacks and whenever else you need a cheesy treat.
Grate the cheese using the finest cheese grater setting.
Put the flour and butter into a food processor and blend just until it has formed a breadcrumb consistency. Then add in the cheese, egg yolk and paprika. Alternatively use your fingers to rub the butter into the flour and then stir in the cheese, egg and paprika.
Knead a little with your hands to form an even dough and then wrap in cling film and refrigerate to rest for an hour.
Preheat the oven to 180C
Sprinkle flour on the work surface and roll out the dough until it is about 2mm thick. Cut out circles with a pastry cutter and place them on a baking tray lined with baking parchment.
Bake them in the oven at for 10 minutes. They will puff up a bit. Turn them over and press them down then continue to bake for another 5 minutes.
Cool them on a wire rack.
