One of my favorite cookies is kaastengels. It's a non-sweet cookie, because it is made from cheese and butter. Never in my life would i ever thought that i'll be making kaastengels, because i thought it's difficult to make. But it turns out that kaastengels is one of those cookies that's really easy to make. Try this recipe, and you will get the crunchiest kaastengels ever!

Ingredients:
125 g butter (i'm using salted butter, because i like them salty)
150 g plain flour
100 g edam cheese, finely grated
25 g maizena flour (about 6 teaspoons)
50 g cheddar cheese, grated (for sprinkle)
2 egg yolk for the cookie
1 egg yolk for the spread
1/4 tsp baking powder
Directions:
- Soften butter and egg yolk until soft. Add grated edam cheese.
- Sift plain flour, maizena flour, and bakin powder, and then add to egg and butter mixture.
- Form the dough into desired shapes (round, 3 cm length rectangle, whatever). Spread the top side with egg yolk, and then sprinkle with grated cheddar cheese.
- Put into the pre-heated oven (about 180 degrees C) and bake 10 - 15 minutes.
