Homemade Cheezies
For some reason, a bag of Cheezies (the real, Hawkins kind – they’re Canadian, did you know?) with some kind of big red wine has become my idea of heaven on a Friday night. (It’s important to have achievable dreams.) It occurred to me awhile ago that I could in fact make something kindasorta similar – I’m not sure revisiting these cheesy bits was altogether a good idea. So I’ve decided to drag you down with me.
Yes, I’m aware that you know about cheese straws already. They were All That in the eighties and are still just as familiar, although most present-day recipes have taken a shortcut with frozen puff pastry dough. Trust me, these are worth tucking back into your repertoire; they’re as easy to mix and bake as a batch of cookies, and can be pulled into service for any occasion for which you are responsible for providing something to nibble on. The dough takes no more than five minutes in a food processor and is freezable – stash a few balls of dough to thaw, roll and bake when a cheese craving hits. (And because your sense of taste has so much to do with your sense of smell, baking them right before you eat them is like food foreplay – the best possible potpourri.)
They also, it turns out, make a great nibble alongside a bowl of soup, if you need a sort of ballast that doesn’t come in the form of a wedge of bread or enormous biscuit. And have you heard what I’m doing this weekend? I thought I was spending it gaining some control of my house / yard / laundry / basement. Nope. It turns out I’m making lunch for Leonard Nimoy, Malcolm McDowell
and Sid Haig. Life is weird sometimes. Leonard requested two soups. I’m making soup for Spock!
For real! No pressure. I’ll get pictures.
Cheddar Straws
AuthorJulie
Put the cheddar, flour, butter, salt and cayenne into the bowl of a food processor and pulse until well combined and crumbly. (If you don’t have a food processor, grate the cheese and toss it with the dry ingredients, breaking it up as much as you can with a whisk, pastry cutter or fork.) Add the milk and pulse until it starts to come together. Remove the dough from the food processor and gather it into a ball. Cover with a tea towel and let rest for about 20 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 350°F. On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough out into an oval or rectangle about 1/8” thick and cut crosswise into strips that are about 1/4” wide using a pizza wheel or sharp knife. (Alternatively, cut the dough into stars or other small shapes.) Transfer to an ungreased cookie sheet and if you like, twist them a few times for dramatic effect. Bake for 10-12 minutes, until pale golden on the ends.

oh yum! being non-canadian… i didn’t know about these! i really want to try them, they sound delicious with a glass of red wine. good luck and have a blast at your lunch tomorrow :o)
Wonderful! Thank you.
A recipe for cheese straws that I can handle – and the Canucks won! Can a day get any better than this?
I confess that I’m a Cheese Straw champion… I make them like it’s 1999 (okay… so that was a bad pun on your 80s reference, but you get the picture.) This is a great variation that I can’t wait to try! They look divine.
It’s okay to be a little jealous that you’re making soup for Spock, right?
That is totally what I’m baking with the girls next. They will LOVE them.
I bet today’s lunch will be the best those Comic Expo guys have ever had on the road!
Yeah Hawkins Cheezies!
I love them with chocolate milk.
No, I didn’t know they were Canadian – all the more reason to love them – and support our economy, eh!
Great story about the coming of Cheezies to Canada and their staying to become a unique Canadian product over three generations in the same family. The link was well worth the read. Hope you serve those soups with some Cheezies on the side.
Wow. Leonard Nimoy. That’s awesome.
julie, you’re hilarious! i think there’s only one you.
Live long and prosper! 😉
Oh and happy Pigs in a Blanket day…I thought you might be celebrating since W is such a hot dog fan. I’m making a version with Piller’s light Turkey Pepperoni and Pillsbury weiner wraps. Apparently they are traditionally made with pancakes and sausages but I thought this was close enough…and reminds me of the weiner wraps I ate as a kid…my flashback to the 70/80s!
OOhh! You have a charmed life.
When I was a kid, back in the original Star Trek days, we would ‘play’ Star Trek and I was always thrilled to be Spock. We used Cover Girl compacts as communicators…so good to have our priorities straight!!
i can’t wait to see the pictures, He seems to be a very elegant man.
You had me going with the homemade cheezies title…I totally dig cheese straws too and thanks for reminding me to make these! my kids would love these!
These may be Canadian, but they’re also as Southern as all get-out. Like all Southern women, I got the recipe from my grandmother, who swore me to secrecy. Was your grandmother Southern?? Hmmm???
Aren’t they just the perfect thing for a little nibble, though? If you want to blow your tastebuds away, take some dates, stuff them with pecan halves, wrap them in this dough and bake them. OH. MY.
Yours are gorgeous. I love the stars!
These look great! I just made some cheese crackers recently and thought “Where have you been my whole life!?”
I must show these to my little guy. He’s a cheese and cracker fanatic and I think this marries the two perfectly!
These sound wonderful.
Hmmm, Cheezies and red wine do sound like heaven! Why haven’t I thought of pairing them before?
Love the cheese straws recipe – you have lots of great ideas that my 2 yr old son will actually eat. Thanks!
I just made these – they’re a hit for the boyfriend! The boyfriend wants me to type in this message “Thank you, you’re amazing.”
I used half extra old cheddar and half monterey jack jalapeno. Instead of paprika I used a “barbecue” seasoning mix. Next time I’ll just use paprika!
Hey-I’m planning to make these for a dinner party. Do you think I could mix them, cut them, then put them in the fridge the day before? Or is there a better way to serve them hot and fresh without making them the day of?
Hmmm.. I think you’ll have to make them the day of in order for them to be hot..or reheat them, but if you’re going to do that you might as well bake them! Sure, cut them and refrigerate the day before, then lay them out and bake as people are coming – that way they’ll smell them baking, too, which is half the pleasure!
Very efficiently written post. It will be beneficial to everyone who employess it, including yours truly :). Keep up the good work – i will definitely read more posts.
Oooooooooooh, I MUST try these! God bless Costco-sized blocks of cheddar just begging for a higher calling.
I just wanted to pass on that I used a cookie press with this dough and it was fabulous!
So good to know! Thanks for the tip!
These sound a lot like Goldfish, that you put in tomato soup! Which are quite costly considering they don’t last so long lol. Can’t wait to try, with sharp aged Canadian Cheddar. Or, Canadian apple wood smoked cheddar. Cheers!

I too have recently discovered the achievable dream of couch time with a red and a bag of Hawkins Cheezies … and even more recently how a bag of slightly broken up Hawkins sprinkled like Goldfish, makes tomato soup just that much more interesting.
Hawkins on their own easily reborn with little imagination … what DOESN’T work with something crunchy and cheddary?
A few shakes of curry powder (maybe touch of cardamom or cumin) into a bag? NOM!
Dipped/dredged through guacamole? Muy nom.
Jalapeno flakes?
Wierdo who found your page Googling to see what other things people have done with Hawkins ‘s work here is done.

A carefully curated wardrobe support professional encounters.
It is important to consider unique style and suitability for the occasion.
Fashion trends allow people to experiment with looks.
Overall, dressing stylishly positively impacts perception.
Every day, health quietly shapes the way we feel, act, and think.
Still, in a world overflowing with advice, it’s easy to lose true understanding.
Complex truths are replaced by quick formulas.
When we ignore it, we lose connection with ourselves.
Balance isn’t a fixed point but a movement that requires noticing.
That is why awareness is not just a skill but a form of care.
Awareness turns the ordinary into something vivid.
Every insight deepens the relationship we have with ourselves.
When the idea of gentle awareness feels more natural than pressure.
To see health as something that grows through presence.
Patience over perfection.
Through reflection, we discover that the smallest signals often carry the greatest wisdom.
That intersection between feeling and knowledge is where insight truly lives.
Have you ever thought about how this relates to what is kamagra 100mg used for.
We think about health more often than we realize.
Still, in a world overflowing with advice, it’s easy to lose true understanding.
And the more we follow, the further we drift from our own balance.
At some point, we start to sense that something doesn’t fit.
Our systems adjust, adapt, and change every day.
By observing, we begin to understand what our body truly needs.
We begin to live in rhythm rather than against it.
It grows through curiosity and consistency.
When curiosity feels more honest than constant striving.
To see health as something that grows through presence.
Learning through awareness, not repetition.
When we listen closely, we begin to see health as a story that keeps unfolding.
What feels like intuition is often grounded in clear biological patterns.
Those deeper processes reveal themselves clearly through acyclovir vs valacyclovir.
