I made these along with Ina's blue cheese and walnut crackers twice each this weekend for two occasions. Both were delicious, but these seemed to go faster than the others. One suggestion: as the dry ingredients are mixing in the mixer, add tablespoonfuls of water as needed, one by one, until the mixture starts to come together as a dough ball. That's when you know the mixture is moist enough. Otherwise the dough will be very crumbly and dry.

I'm going to give this one five because the flavor is so nice and the recipe is very simple. In my case, I found that about 2-3 tablespoons of water to be enough to get the mixture to come together. However, I started with butter that was a little harder than I would have liked (left it out for two days too! Rather than by weight, I just grated parmesan until I had what looked like two 1 cup-sized piles. I also give this recipe high marks because for about the price of a box of speciality crackers in the supermarket you end up with a far superior product.

Very EASY recipe and very tasty, but I think I added too much cheese b/c it was extremely dry as a dough, so I added more and more butter. They smell amazing while baking, but now as I am tasting them they are pretty dry and flaky. Delicious, but kinda messy.

I love this recipe. I keep them frozen and when I have friends over I pop these in the oven, have some fruit and wine. My friends love them.

WITHOUT THE COMMENTS FROM OTHER REVIEWERS, I MAY HAVE WASTED TIME AND MONEY...SO THANK YOU FOR:
1. SAYING THE BUTTER SHOULD BE ROOM TEMP
2. CORRECTING THE PARMESAN TO A GRATED (ONE CUP
3. ADDING 1 TABLESPOON OF WATER TO DOUGH FOR RIGHT CONSISTENCY

I GUESS WE'LL JUST HAVE TO STICK TOGETHER.


THE CRACKERS ARE DIVINE, DOUBLE THE BATCH!

Grrrrrrr! Here's a little life lesson: Don't trust a recipe from FoodNetwork.com. The only thing more irritating in the kitchen than a recipe that is missing a key ingredient is a recipe that is missing a key ingredient that has not been corrected after a couple of YEARS on the internet!

Once I discovered through comments from other frustrated viewers how to correct this wongly-writen recipe, the results were excellent. These are WONDERFUL crackers.

Grrrrrr!

There isn't a recipe of Ina's I haven't loved and this is no exception. Made them for a get together where we were doing appetizers/dips and people couldn't get enough. I have to agree with everything Barbara said - basically word for word! They were unbelievable and once you started you just couldn't stop! I added extra thyme and yes, I did need several tablespoons more water than the recipe said but very simple and full of flavor. Making them again this weekend.

I followed the recipe and had no problems. Took them to a party and everyone loved them. I'll make these again!

I made these from the Back To Basics Cookbook...OH MY GOODNESS...they were the best tasting things ever. I have had cheese straws and this is even better. The flavor is fantastic. I should have taken the one gals advice and only made part of the log cuz all I do is keep going back for "just one more!" OH SO GOOD and very simple. I did have to add a little water to get a consistency that would shape but that is to be expected when using different ingredients, and the recipe said it may be needed. Absolutely the best...another winner, Ina!

These crackers are heavenly! Give me a dozen of these anyday over chocolates. I added a little water to my dough, taking advice from the other reviewers. Instead of thyme, I used rosemary and also ditched the salt. I think there's enough in the cheese to cover for that. They turned out delicious. Will definitely be making these around the holidays.
