Spring Hill Ranch'S Cheddar Cheese Straws

• 1 1/2 cups coarsely grated extra-sharp cheddar cheese
• 1 cup unbleached all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
• 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into tablespoon-sized chunks
• 1/2 teaspoon table salt
• 1 tablespoon low-salt Southwestern seasoning mix or mild chili powder
• 1/8 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
• 2 tablespoons heavy cream

1. Adjust two oven racks to the upper and lower thirds of the oven. Preheat the oven to 350u0b0. Line 2 sheet pans with parchment paper and set aside.
2. In a food processor, pulse the cheese, flour, butter, salt, Southwestern seasoning and ground cayenne pepper until it resembles coarse meal. Add the cream and pulse until a ball forms.
3. On a lightly floured work surface, roll the dough out to 1/8 to 1/4-inch thick. Cut the dough with a sharp knife or pizza cutter into 1/4-inch wide strips. Transfer the strips to your prepared sheet pans, leaving half an inch space between them. Bake them in your preheated oven for 15 minutes. Flip the pans once halfway through the cooking time. Cool completely on the sheet pans before serving.
