It is the last Thursday of the Why is There So MUCH Cheese? January theme. I added the caps on much because there is still so much cheese. But… I can see the bottom of the cheese drawer so that is something.
This was a very simple recipe. 2 c flour, 2 sticks butter, 2 c cheese. Spices. Bake at 375.
The original recipe called this a shortbread and also wanted the dough mixed in a stand mixer. I can see why this is called a shortbread but I didn’t think the mixer would work. So I used the food processor.
I had to add water to make the ingredients bind together because they would not. All I had after 30 seconds of food processing was fluffy white powder. After I added the water, the dough came together. I pinched off small pieces of it and rolled the balls. The recipe also calls for pressing the balls with the bottom of a glass. I hate to do that because the dough balls will stick to the glass and it just gets messy. I used my fingers.
To bring it back to the OR, why are there still so many appendixes out there? Yeah, statistically not everyone has their appendix removed. I have mine, and so does my sister, and husband, and mother. Not my brother though, he’s the only one in the family that has had it removed. And in the same thought, why are there still so many gallbladders out there. Watch what you eat, people!
