my first attempt at cheese cookies was a success! these are italian cheese cookies. the original recipe used parmesan cheese but i love gruyere so i used half parmesan & half gruyere. don’t be fooled tho, this is not a regular cheese cookie. take a bite into it and expect the unexpected… rosemary, sun-dried tomatoes & who’d guess, cayenne pepper.

i brought a bunch of these to butter on saturday & those who were there early enough got to try it! i was also very selective about who got to taste test my cookies tho…  and ed gave me a rainbow  star grading! yay! :)

pssstttt : i made rosti today! see it in my next food post!
