Shix Bakes: Cheese thins

This is my trial batch of cheese thins. Changes will be updated as I go along. 


Ingredients:
500g unsalted butter
1/2 cup sugar

250g Gouda shredded
250g mature cheddar shredded

800g plain flour
100g corn flour

Pinch of cayenne pepper 

Glaze/topping(optional)
Egg yolk (cut with milk if too thick)
Almond strips/slices

Method: 
Cream the butter and sugar till fluffy. Slowly add in the cheeses. Add in the sieved flours and pepper a little at a time. 

Once mixed, place the super soft dough in cling wrap and roll it into a log. Chill the logs till firm. (About an hour but I left them overnight and alhamdulillah it was fine)

Preheat oven at 150deg

Taking out one log at a time, cut them into 3mm slices and place the slices on a lined/greased baking sheet. (Optional: glaze with egg yellow and place almond on top) Bake for 20 min. 

Note: Cooking time will differ, depending on the size n thickness of the cookie
