Directions:
Prepare the dough at least a day before you plan to bake the crackers. Sift dry ingredients together in a small bowl. In a large mixing bowl, cream butter until it is soft and pale yellow. Add cheese and mix well; gradually stir in dry ingredients. The mixture will be stiff. Shape the dough into two 9-inch long logs about 1 inch in diameter. Wrap them in wax paper, then in aluminum foil, and refrigerate overnight. The dough may be refrigerated for up to a week. Preheat the oven to 375º. Slice the rolls into rounds 1/8 to 1/4 inch thick and place on an ungreased baking sheet. Top each with a pecan half. Bake until golden, about 12 minutes.
