Crispy Cheese Rounds - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 stick margarine or butter, softened
8 oz. grated Cheddar cheese
1 tsp. salt
1 c. flour
1 dash of Texas Pete
small pkg. pecan halves

Preparation

Mix all ingredients on low speed in a mixer.
When the mixture resembles wet sawdust, with clean hands, make cylinders about the diameter of a quarter.
Wrap the cylinders in wax paper. Place in the freezer. Leave in the freezer at least 1 1/2 hours or in freezer bags in freezer until ready to use within 2 months. Slice cylinders into rounds 1/8-inch to 1/4-inch wide (thinner rounds are more crisp).
Place 1-inch apart on a cookie sheet. Place a pecan half in the center of each.
Place in a preheated oven at 350\u00b0 for 15 minutes or until edges are lightly browned. After cooled, store in airtight container.
