Cheddar Cheese Crisps

Ingredients:

• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (sharp cheddar works well)
• Optional: Smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, garlic powder

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
3. Place small mounds (about 1 tablespoon each) of shredded cheddar cheese on the baking sheet, leaving space between each mound.
4. Optional: Sprinkle with smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, or garlic powder for added flavor.
5. Bake for 5-7 minutes until the edges are crispy and the cheese is melted.
6. Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes to firm up.
7. Transfer the crisps to a wire rack to cool completely and become crunchy.
