Savoury Cookies
AuthorMeg's KitchenThis is a simple, fabulous, versatile recipe for savoury cookies. I know I say this for most recipes of mine but then that’s true!! I can’t help but share right?? This cookie has a crumbly, short bread like texture and a yummy cheesy flavour profile. Even though I am sharing Italian flavoured recipe here today, you can go wild and experiment with what you like (read notes, have shared some interesting flavours)
120 g Flour
½ tbsp Mixed Dry Herbs
1 tsp Chilli Flakes
1 tsp Garlic Powder
½ tsp Salt
⅛ tsp Baking Powder
60 g Grated Cheese
75 g Softened Butter
2 tbsp Milk (if required)
1
- Sift together all dry ingredients, flour, mixed herbs, chilli flakes, garlic powder, salt and baking powder.
- Add to this mix, grated cheese and butter. Knead gently into a dough. If required use milk for getting the right consistency. Do not over knead.
- Roll the dough into a log approximately 1 1/2 inches in diameter, cover in cling wrap and refrigerate for
2 hours or until hardened or freeze for 30 minutes or until hardened. Alternatively, you can also flatten the dough into a disc, cling wrap and set similarly. - Pre-heat the oven to 170 C.
- Remove and unwrap the dough. Cut 1 cm thick discs carefully and place on to a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Or if you formed a disc, then, using a rolling pin, roll out the dough to 1/4” thickness. Cut into desired shape and place onto a lined baking tray.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes or until you see the edges browning.
- Remove and cool onto a cooling rack.
- Best enjoyed with a hot beverage!

- You can roll it out and use the base for pizza.
- You can cut small discs and use as a base for your appetizers.
