4-Ingredient Homemade Goldfish Crackers
These 4-Ingredient Homemade Goldfish Crackers are a delightful twist on a childhood favorite, ready in just 25 minutes. With a crispy, golden exterior and a tender, cheesy center, they’re irresistibly satisfying.
Ingredients
- 2 cup all-purpose flour (10oz/282g)
- 1 stick cold unsalted butter (4oz/115g) (cubed)
- 2 ⅔ cups grated sharp cheddar cheese (8oz/225g)
- 3-4 tablespoons water
Instructions
- In a food processor, pulse the flour, butter, and cheese together until the mixture resembles coarse meal.
- Pulse in the water, one tablespoon at a time, and only enough so that the dough forms a ball.
- Remove, wrap in plastic, and chill for 20 minutes or up to 24 hours. (Note: don't keep the dough for longer than 36 hours without freezing it or baking it off.)
- Roll the dough out on a lightly floured surface 1/8-inch thick. Rolling the dough thin will give you crispy crackers.
- Using a 3 inch Goldfish Cookie Cutters or another cutter cut out as many crackers as you can.
- Place on a lined cookie sheet and use a toothpick to make an indentation for the eye and the mouth of the fish.
- Bake at 350°F (180°C) for roughly 15-20 minutes, until golden, and crisp.
- Store cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
- You can also cut out the dough, freeze the raw goldfish and bake them off in small batches when you want them.
