My kiddos Love this!!!!!
Basic Cracker Dough
1/2 cup of softened butter, not too soft, just room temp
1 1/2 cups of flour
1/2 teaspoon of salt
Thats the basic mix. Yeah, I know, simple huh? You can mix this up in a nice batch, roll it out onto wax paper, roll it up, and slice it out thinly to put in the oven to bake. You can even shape it into squares before cutting by using the wax paper to hold it while you shape it, or triangles...make sure you chill this for 30 minutes before slicing.
Once sliced, lay them out, bake 10 - 12 minutes, and sprinkle with salt right after coming out!
Adding more butter will give them a nice buttery taste...
Adding hot sauce, paprika, chili powder, and cheddar cheese will make a Mexican cracker...sprinkle with more paprika when theyre baked...
Adding garlic, parmesian cheese, oregano, parsley, and thyme will give it an Italian taste...
Add red pepper flakes and hot sauce for a spicey cracker for tomato soups..
Add ranch dressing or onion soup to it and youve got some very rich, but yummy crackers that go great with cream cheese dip...
You can add anything to this batter and it bakes up nice! Just make sure you dont make it too liquidy to keep them together as they bake!
