  2      cups          Extra sharp Cheddar cheese -- grated (8 ounces)
    1/2  cup           Butter or margarine -- softened (1 stick)
  1 1/2  cups          Martha White All-Purpose -- Flour

Beat cheese and butter in mixing bowl until blended.
Stir together flour, salt, and pepper in separate bowl. Add flour
mixture to cheese mixture; stir to blend or use hands to work in flour.
Cover dough and refrigerate for 1 hour. Preheat oven to 375. Grease a
large baking sheet. Turn dough out onto lightly floured board or pastry
cloth; knead gently just until smooth. Roll out very thin, 1/8-inch
thick. Cut into 4 x 1/2-inch sticks using sharp knife or pastry wheel.
Place sticks on prepared baking sheet. BAke for 10 to 12 minutes or
until golden brown. Cool on wire rack.
