Preparation method

Prep: 40 mins | Cook: 10 mins

4. With a sharp knife or pastry wheel cut lengthwise into 1/4 inch wide strips.
5. Taking hold of both ends of each “straw”, twist in opposite directions. Arrange cheese straws about 1″ apart on baking sheets.
6. CHILL cheese twists for 20 minutes (or overnight).
7. Bake cheese straws in middle of preheated oven until golden, about 10 minutes. Transfer cheese straws to a rack and cool.
8. Enjoy!
