Recipe(tried): Easy as Pie Cheese Straws using Jiffy Pie Crust Mix....

I thought I'd chime in here and say, hello and expand on easy and economical Jiffy products!

This recipe was popular some years back. They can also be formed into logs and sliced for cracker or fed through a cookie press fitted with the appropriate disc. Very easy and tasty.

EASY-AS-PIE CHEESE STRAWS

1 (11 ounce) package pie crust mix
1 (5 ounce) jar sharp process cheese spread
1/4 tsp ground red pepper (optional)

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Lightly grease baking sheets.

Position knife blade in food processor bowl; add all ingredients, and process about 30 seconds or until mixture forms a ball, stopping often to scrape down sides.

Use a cookie press fitted with a bar-shaped disk to shape dough into 2.5 inch straws, following manufacturers directions. Or divide dough in half, and shape each portion into a 7 inch log; wrap in plastic and chill one hour.
Cut into 1/4-inch slices. Place on prepared baking sheets.

Bake at 375 degrees for 8 minutes or until browned. Transfer to wire racks to cool.

Yield: 5 dozen.
