Hey,

I have chosen Cheese crisps for snacks but can’t find anything in the store that says “cheese crisp”. Is this something I make and if so how do I make it?

    Have you googled “cheese crisp”? It’s baked cheese until melted and then cooled to be a crisp.

    You can make these on a dry non stick pan too on top of the stove too. I sometimes make them with grated Parmesan to use as a garnish when cooking pasta or risotto for company to add a brittle accent to soft dishes.

    I've made them in the microwave, too, using parmesan - the real cheese, not the powder in a can. Spread thin on a plate, microwave watching closely because they burn quickly once crisp.

    My favourite part of anything melted cheese was always the crispy bits. The day I found out I could just make a sheet pan of nothing but crispy bits was a happy, happy day indeed.
