INGREDIENTS
4 tablespoons shredded cheddar OR one (1 oz) slice of sharp cheddar, cut into four squares
Optional:2 tablespoons dip such as guacamole, salsa, or Greek yogurt dip.
INSTRUCTIONS
Place the four mounds (or squares) of cheese on parchment (not wax) paper. Slightly flatten. Make sure they are 1-2 inches apart.
Place the parchment paper directly on the microwave glass tray.
Microwave the pieces on high for 1:30-2 minutes, until lacy and lightly browned. In my microwave, it takes 1:30 minutes.
Allow the crackers to cool for a few seconds.
Blot the excess oil with a paper towel and serve, alone or with a dip such as guacamole, salsa, or Greek yogurt dip.
NOTES
Microwave ovens vary, so you’ll likely need to experiment a few times until you find what works in your microwave. As a general rule, for crispy crackers, you’ll want to start with 1 minute and 30 seconds for 4 crackers.
If you can see that the middle of the crackers is still soft, you can add 30 more seconds.
