Phew, now that I've got that off my chest... I've been wanting to find a recipe for some little snack crackers for the kids for quite awhile. Finally, I found it! And they are so incredibly easy! 

The beauty of this recipe is it's not just for kids. Serving these right out of the oven at a dinner party will win you serious accolades (and they will be gone in seconds-- especially if I you invite me!). 

You can cut the crackers in any shape and adorn them in any way you wish. I used a tiny horsie cookie-cutter for the kids and ruffly postage stamps shape (with my ravioli cutter) for adults (oh ok, me). I used a tiny bit of fleur de sel on the top, but kosher salt would work just as well (just a little bit, as they already have salt in the dough). Other things that could be nice are sesame seeds or a couple of poppy seeds, a little grinding of pepper or a teeny pinch of nutmeg, a tiny added bit of grated cheese. You could also add any of these things to the dough too. I do think some finely chopped herbs (parsley, dill, thyme, rosemary, marjoram) would look and taste lovely as well.  

Be sure to score them with a fork, and if your oven runs hot watch them closely. I rolled my batch pretty thin and started checking them at 8 minutes, both batches took about 11 minutes in my oven. 

Added bonus: they smell soooo yummy while they are cooking. 

I can't improve on the instructions from Smitten Kitchen, so follow this link to get the recipe. 

Bye-bye Annie's Cheddar Bunnies! Woo-hoo!

(Yes, I ate that one!)
