Blazing Monster Eyes
- 4 tablespoons butter, softened
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 dash cayenne pepper
- 1 cup extra-sharp cheddar cheese
- 1 cup mild cheddar cheese
- 1 cup flour
- 50 black olives
- 50 pieces pepperoni (small chunks)
- Preheat the oven to 400F.
- In a medium bowl beat the butter until very soft and smooth.
- Add the paprika and cayenne and blend.
- Add the cheeses and mix well.
- Stir in the flour.
- Take an olive and insert the chunk of pepperoni.
- With your fingers wrap about 1 1/2 teaspoons of dough around the olive, leaving a small part of it outside the dough to form an iris on the eye.
- Roll the mixture into a smooth ball and place one inch apart on an ungreased baking sheet.
- Bake until the cheddar pastry is firm and crispy, but not browned (about 12 minutes).
- Serve hot or cold.
