Recipe - Parmesan Crackers

8 tablespoon (1 stick) butter or
Margarine, softened
2 cup Allpurpose flour
1 One half cup (about 8 ounces) finely
Grated Parmesan cheese
1 Egg yolk
One half cup Water

"Parmesan Crackers are great with a cold beer or soda. Once you have
started eating them, it is nearly impossible to stop. 350~F. 15 to 20
minutes Preheat the oven to 350~F. In a large bowl or in the food
processor, cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse
meal. Add the cheese and egg yolk and mix well. Add enough of the water to
form a dough that will hold together in a cohesive ball. The texture will
be somewhat crumbly, but the dough will hold together when pressed. Divide
the dough into 2 equal portions for rolling. On a floured surface or pastry
cloth, roll each into a rectangle about One fourth inch thick. Cut out individual
crackers about 2 inches across with a cookie cutter or sharp knife and
arrange them on an ungreased baking sheet. Prick each cracker 2 or 3 times
with the tines of a fork. Bake for 10 minutes. Turn the crackers over and
bake another 5 to 10 minutes, or until medium brown. Cool the crackers on a
rack. Yield: 4050.
