Ingredients

2

cups Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour

1

cup butter or margarine, softened

1 1/2

teaspoons garlic salt

1/2

teaspoon chipotle chile powder

3

cups shredded extra-sharp Cheddar cheese (from two 8-oz bags)

Preparation

In large bowl, beat all ingredients except cheese with electric mixer on medium speed until dough forms. Add cheese; beat on low speed until dough forms a ball. Shape dough into 2 (6x2-inch) logs. Wrap in plastic wrap; refrigerate at least 2 hours or up to 24 hours.

Heat oven to 350°F. Unwrap dough; cut into 1/4-inch slices with sharp knife. On ungreased cookie sheets, place slices 1 inch apart.

Bake 22 to 25 minutes or until crisp around edges. Immediately remove from cookie sheets to cooling racks. Cool completely.
