A lesson in cheesy history...
What are Cheese Straws?
What are "Pennies"?
An upgrade to the Southern cheese straw, Piedmont "Pennies" are bite-sized cheesy biscuit bites of heaven. Pennies are small, round, crunchier, cheesier and more satisfying than softer cheese straws, with no bitter aftertaste.
What are cheese straws made of?
Hard, sharp cheeses, flour, butter, salt, and spices.
Why are cheese straws popular in the South?
Cheese straws were a way of preserving cheese in the hot, humid Southeastern United States climate. They gained popularity in the mid-60s as a go-to appetizer for cocktail parties.
What is the best cheese to use for cheese straws?
Hard, aged cheeses like cheddar are best for baked cheese straws.
Do you need a cookie press for cheese straws?
No! You can hand roll, cut, or in our case, "pinch Pennies" into any size you desire.
