What an easy and impressive recipe.. Very tasty and made the perfect addition to a plate of party sandwiches for lunch.. I did keep them in the oven for an additional min or two and they were wonderfully crisp.

I am kind of surprised that these didnt work out for me after reading so many good reviews. I bought asiago as well as shredded Parmesan. First round with asiago. Maybe with an aged asiago it would have worked out better. I think the water content of my asiago was too high becau they didn't "crisp." Not even a little. They were a gummy mess. Tried again with all parm. Followed other advice - didn't roast pine nuts first, watched closely to keep from burning - but even with sage, they just didn't have much flavor. No one at the party ate them and we threw away the rest at the end of the night. Would they have been better with an aged asiago? It's possible. They might also work with a salad if I could just get them thinner and crispier. But I am not sure I will try them again.

delicious and easy...don't toast the nuts first and chop them on the bigger side so they don't burn. 9 min at 425 was too hot/long (6-8 ay 375?. box grater over grinder turned out bigger chunks of cheese, which was better. kept their crisp wrapped in plastic wrap...

These pine nut cheese crisps were awesome. I made three trays with just a half recipe. We were just having 6 peoole. My husband kept snitching them as he walked by. I didn't have fresh sage so I used fresh thyme. They were so, so good. I did ten minutes and none burned at all. This recipe is a keeper. I will do it for a New Years Eve party. I couldn't find shredded asiago, but shredding it on a box grater was OK. FIVE STARS!

WOW so tasty. They cooked really fast about 7 minutes for me. These would be great w/ a salad instead of croutons.

These are awesome! true to recipe, it took 10 minutes on a silpat placed on a cookie sheet. I chopped fresh sage and mixed it with the store bought shredded asiago cheese. Pressed the toasted pine nuts (also store bought into the 1 tbsp. mixture and wala, done. I just made a few and will see if they freeze well at all.

The pine nuts kept burning on mine. well, not exactly 'burned' but got too brown and seemed to give crisp a burned taste. I omitted them after the second batch came out same way, despite lowering oven temp to 400. The crisps were good, not great. The asiago cheese is very expensive, so since results were not great, I doubt if I'll be repeating this recipe.

Excellent! Have tried with different cheeses and different seasonings and they are always a hit! The chopped pine nuts definitely add a special flavor and texture! Great as a garnish for soup and salad as well.

They looked good, but were too salty. I will not make again.

This was a huge hit and so easy. My husband is super picky, and as usual, turned his nose up at the plate full of crisps. But once he mustered up the nerve to try one, he loved them! Everyone wanted the recipe and promptly cleaned the plate. Asiago cheese is fairly pricey but well worth it. I didn't have sage, so I substitued summer savory. They were fine.
