Ingredients
  

  • 1 tablespoon (14 g / 0.49 oz) unsalted butter, softened
  • 6 ounces (170 g / 6 oz) Parmesan cheese, finely grated
  • 3 tablespoons (21 g / 0.74 oz) walnuts, finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon (5 ml / 0.2 fl oz) fresh thyme, finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon (5 ml / 0.2 fl oz) fresh rosemary, finely chopped
  • For extra-thin and crispy results, gently flatten the mounds with the back of a spoon before baking.
  • Experiment with other hard, aged cheeses like Asiago or Pecorino Romano, or swap walnuts for chopped pecans.
  • Store completely cooled crisps in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days to maintain their crunch.

Method
 

  1. Preparation
  2. Preheat your oven to 350°F / 175°C and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  3. In a medium bowl, thoroughly mix the softened butter and grated Parmesan cheese.
  4. Fold in the chopped walnuts.
  5. Drop tablespoon-sized mounds of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  6. Sprinkle the fresh thyme and rosemary over each mound.
  7. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and crispy.
  8. Allow the crisps to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. Add a pinch of cayenne pepper or smoked paprika to the cheese mixture for a spicy kick.
