Bastoncini al formaggio cremoso facili

Ingredienti

• 350 g all purpose flour
• 200 g UNSALTED butter (or if you have to use salted butter, don't add 2 tsp salt, just one or even none)
• 100 g cream cheese
• 250 g grated Lancashire or Cheddar cheese (I used Lancashire)
• 2 tsp salt
• 1 egg beaten for egg wash

Preparazione

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 180 Celsius.Measure out all the ingredients.

2. 2

   Mix everything together. It's best, if the butter is room temperature, so it's easier to knead.

3. 3

   Roll the dough out on a lightly flour dusted surface, about 1.5 cm thick. Aim for a rectangular form as much as you can. See my photo.

4. 4

   You can egg wash at this point, before cutting the straws or after. In my opinion, it's easier to do so before.

5. 5

   Cut the straws, aim for about a 1-2 cm wide straws that are fairly even so they also bake evenly. You can sprinkle with the leftover cheese if any left.

6. 6

   bake for about 13-16 minutes on 180 Celsius.Enjoy!
