JALAPEñO CHEESE CRISPS

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Seed the jalapeño as shown in the video, then slice it into thin rings.
• Using a measuring tablespoon, scoop the cheese into the prepared baking sheet, creating 16 mounds.
• Gently flatten the cheese mounds with your fingers. Keep them about an inch apart from each other.
• Place a slice of jalapeño in the middle of each cheese mound.
• Bake the crisps until very browned, about 12 minutes.
• Allow them to firm up on the baking sheet for 1-2 minutes, then use a small spatula (such as a cheese slicer or a cake server) to remove them to a serving platter.

JALAPENO CHEESE CRISPS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with silicone baking mats or parchment paper.
• Sprinkle the jalapeno slices around one of the prepared baking sheets in a single layer. Bake for 7 to 9 minutes; this will remove some of the moisture from the jalapeno and help ensure your cheese crisps live up to the crisp in their name. Transfer to a bowl.
• Meanwhile, mix the cheeses together in a medium bowl.
• Using a tablespoon measure, spoon mounds of the cheese mixture onto the lined baking sheets, 1 to 1 1/2 inches apart from each other. Press a jalapeno slice into the center of each mound. Bake until golden and crisp, 10 to 12 minutes.
• Allow the crisps to cool slightly before handling, then serve. Or let cool completely and store in an airtight container.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F.
• Gently combine all the ingredients.
• Cover a baking sheet with a piece of parchment paper.
• Place a level tablespoon of the mixture into the baking sheet. Pat down to make a 3-inch disc. Repeat with the remaining mixture making sure to space the discs at least 1 inch apart.
• Bake for 5 to 8 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbling, melted, and the crisps are golden brown in colour.
