Cheese Straws


Wow! These are so simple and easy to make, and they are a great addition to any party buffet. One batch makes about 24 long straws, if you wish to make more, make each batch separately. This is one recipe where you really have to use a food processor to get the best results.

  • 1 cup ( 4 oz - 120 gm) all purpose white flour
