Directions:
Mixing Magic in the Food Processor
To begin crafting your cannabis-infused Goldfish Crackers, gather your ingredients and fire up your food processor.
Here’s what you need to do:
In your food processor, combine 1 cup of all-purpose flour, 4 tablespoons of cold canna unsalted butter, 8 ounces of cheddar cheese, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. If you like a little extra kick, feel free to add a pinch of pepper for some zing!
Pulse these ingredients together until the mixture reaches a texture resembling coarse meal. You’ll be able to see the beautiful fusion of butter, cheese, and flour.
Creating the Dough
Now, it’s time to give your dough its signature texture and consistency.
Here’s how you do it:
Gradually pulse in 3 to 4 tablespoons of water, one tablespoon at a time. Only add enough water to make the dough come together and ride the blade. You want the dough to form a ball that’s just right for rolling out.
Chilling Out
Once your dough is ready, take it out of the food processor. Wrap it in plastic wrap and let it chill in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes. If you’re planning ahead, you can leave it to chill for up to 24 hours, which will enhance the flavors.
Rolling and Cutting Fun
After the dough has had its chill time, it’s time for some creative fun:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C).
Roll out the dough on a cookie sheet to about 1/8-inch thickness. Don’t worry if it’s a bit thicker; your crackers will still be delicious, but they may not be as crunchy.
Now, the most exciting part – use a goldfish-shaped cookie cutter to slice out as many crackers as you can from the dough. The little grinning fish shapes are what make these crackers so special!
Baking Bliss
Place your goldfish-shaped crackers on a baking sheet and pop them into the preheated oven. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until they turn a beautiful golden hue and become wonderfully crisp.
Enjoy the Munchies Magic
Once your homemade Goldfish Crackers have cooled slightly, it’s time to dive in and savor the flavors. Each bite brings a cheesy, slightly herbal note, courtesy of the canna butter. These crackers are perfect for snacking, sharing, or even as a fun party treat.
Conclusion:
There you have it, folks – a simple and smile-inducing recipe for homemade Goldfish Crackers with a touch of cannabis magic. Whether you’re enjoying them as a solo snack or sharing them with friends, these crunchy, cheesy delights are sure to elevate your snacking experience. Remember to enjoy responsibly, and happy baking!
