Miso and Cheddar Cookies
Savory cookies with a twist of miso and cheddar 🧀✨
Ingredients:
1 cup all-purpose flour 🌾
1/2 cup grated sharp cheddar cheese 🧀
2 tbsp white miso paste
1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened 🧈
2 tbsp sugar (yes, sugar! It helps balance the miso) 🍬
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt (or to taste) 🧂
1 large egg 🥚
1 tsp olive oil (optional for extra richness) 🌿
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, cream together the butter, miso paste, and sugar until light and fluffy. This will create the base of your umami-packed dough.
Add the egg and beat until fully incorporated. Then, add the olive oil for an extra buttery touch (if you choose).
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Slowly add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined.
Fold in the cheddar cheese—the more cheese, the better! 🧀
Scoop dough into small balls (about 1 inch) and place them on your prepared baking sheet. Flatten each slightly with a fork or your fingers.
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden and the cookies are slightly puffed. Let them cool on the sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your savory miso and cheddar goodness! Perfect with a cold drink or as a fun appetizer at your next party. 🥳

Miso flavor: You can adjust the miso amount to your taste, but be careful—too much can overpower the cheddar.
