step 1

Place the Unsalted Butter (1/2 cup), Sharp Cheddar Cheese (1 cup), Salt (as needed), Ground Black Pepper (as needed), and Cayenne Pepper (1 pinch) in a food processor and pulse until the butter is broken up into bits. I used a pastry blender until little bits formed.

Add the All-Purpose Flour (1 cup) and All-Purpose Flour (2 Tbsp) and pulse until well combined.

step 3

Add the Worcestershire Sauce (1 tsp) sauce and pulse again. The dough should be moist and come together in your hands.

step 4

Knead the dough until forms a ball. Pat it into a disk and wrap in plastic. Chill for at least an hour.

Bake for 15 minutes, until the crackers darken a bit.
