Shortbread Ingredients:
1 c. all-purpose flour
1/2 c. butter, softened
1/2 tsp. salt
dash ground red pepper (cayenne)
1 (8 oz.) pkg. (2 c.) Sharp Cheddar Cheese, shredded

2 tbsp. sesame seeds
1 egg white
1 tbsp. water
Directions:
Directions:
Combine flour, butter, salt & red pepper in medium mixer bowl; beat at medium speed until dough forms (1-2 min.). Add cheese; mix until a ball forms (1-2 min.). Shape dough into circle; wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate 2 hours or overnight.

Heat oven to 350º. Roll out dough on lightly floured surface to 1/4 in. thickness. (It will be hard to roll at first, but will soften. Press together any cracks that form on edges of dough). Cut dough with 1 1/2 in. cookie cutters or pizza cutter into desired shapes (squares, triangles, circles). Place onto ungreased baking sheets.

Combine poppy & sesame seeds into small bowl. Beat egg white & water together in another small bowl. Brush cut-outs with egg wash; sprinkle with seed mixture.

Bake 12-15 minutes or until very lightly browned around edges. Immediately loosen from pan; let cool on pan.

Tip: Line baking sheets with kitchen parchment paper to make shortbread easier to remove & clean-up faster.
Shortbread can be topped with a variety of other ingredients such as chili powder, seasoned salt fennel seed or herbs.
