Ingredients:
2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for rolling
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground paprika
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 cup (2 sticks) chilled unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
1 cup grated sharp white cheddar cheese
1/3 cup E. Waldo Ward's Jalapeno Jelly (medium, hot, or extra hot)
Directions:
1 Combine flour, salt, paprika, and cayenne pepper in a food processor fitted with the metal blade; pulse to combine. Add butter; pulse until
mixture resembles coarse meal. Add cheese; process until dough starts to hold together.
2 Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface; knead a few times. Divide into 4 equal
pieces, and roll into logs, each about 6 inches long and 1 1/4 inches in diameter. Wrap in plastic; refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour or up to 3 days. Dough can be
stored in the freezer at this point for up to 1 month.
3 Preheat oven to 350°. Line baking sheets with Silpat baking mats. Cut dough into 1/3-inch-thick slices; place 2 inches apart onto prepared
baking sheets. Bake until lightly browned, about 20 minutes. Remove from oven; let cool on baking sheet 1 minute, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
4When ready to serve,
spoon a small amount of jelly onto center of each cheese round.
Makes about 6 dozen
