Cheese Straw

Cheese, this word itself makes my kids very happy, i can feed them easily anything with cheese. When i chosed Pick one do three as this week's theme for this first blogging marathon of this year i want to make something with cheese. When Valli gave us three links to go through and pick three dishes from those links, i chosed cheese straw from Food Stubs along with two beautiful dishes.When i went through the food stubs listed in this link, obviously i got hooked to cheese straw,so i couldnt stop myself to bake some cheese straw with cheddar cheese.These cheese straws are quite easy to bake and trust me none will resist to this crunchy munchy cheesy sticks.

Cheese sticks

Kids went crazy once they tasted this straws, i served everyone with some garlic flavored cream cheese. Trust me these straws with cream cheese makes an excellent evening snacks and they gets vanished very much quickly once served. Do try this cheese straw with cheddar cheese, apart from this cheese, you can also try to add parmesan or emmental cheese to give a try to this beauties.
