My precious mother adored cheese straws. She made them every single year for Christmas.
Now, over Thanksgiving, Miss Judy "bought" cheese straws to take over to her friend Jean's house. They were having an intimate wine tasting to begin the holidays and celebrate her recent marriage at "77 years young!"
If you like cheese straws, then I am going to share my recipe with you because it's will make the best cheese straws you ever tasted. I have made Mother's recipe for years. These make a beautiful little appetizer to pair with a glass of wine on those cold winter evenings!
Bring the jar of Old English Cheese and the butter to room temperature. Cream the Old English Cheese and the butter. Mix in the salt, cayenne pepper and flour. Press through a cookie press onto an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake 12 minutes at 350 degrees F. This should make about 3 dozen cheese straws!
