Preparation

Step 1

Rub the butter into the flour. Add the grated cheese, salt, pepper and mustard and mix thoroughly.
Add beaten egg yolks and cold water to make a stiff dough.
Roll out about ¼ in thick. Cut into strips 2½ in x ½ in and twist like "twittlers" or make into any variety of shapes desired.
Place the straws on a baking sheet and bake at 400°F for about 15 minutes, or until golden brown.
