For those that prefer a savory bite to a sweet treat, these cheesy and herby crackers make the perfect food gift for friends, family, or hosts. With the help of a food processor, the dough is remarkably easy and can be made up to 12 hours ahead. Flavored with Parmesan and Asiago cheese, as well as rosemary and thyme, these assertive crackers are dangerously snacky. Beyond making a great gift wrapped up in a kraft box or cellophane bag, these crackers also make a fabulous sidekick to charcuterie and sparkling wine.

Ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour
4 oz. shredded Parmesan cheese (about 1 cup)
2 oz. shredded Asiago cheese (about 1/2 cup)
2 tablespoons chopped fresh rosemary
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, cubed, at room temperature

Directions

Place flour, Parmesan, Asiago, rosemary, thyme, salt, and pepper in a food processor; pulse until combined, about 3 pulses.
Add butter and pulse until dough is crumbly, about 10 times. Add 1 tablespoon water and pulse, scraping down sides of bowl as needed, until dough holds together, about 5 pulses.
Press dough into a log about 7 inches long. Wrap tightly with plastic wrap and roll into an even cylinder. Refrigerate until cold and firm, at least 1 hour and up to 1 day.
Preheat oven to 350°F with racks in upper and lower thirds of oven. Slice dough into 1/4-inch-thick rounds. Arrange on 2 baking sheets lined with parchment paper. Bake, swapping baking sheets halfway through, until edges are golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes. Let cool for 2 minutes on baking sheets, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely, about 20 minutes. Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
