# What You'll Need:
→ Sourdough Cheez-Its
01 - 1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, grated
02 - 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
03 - 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cold and cubed
04 - 2 tablespoons sourdough starter
05 - 1/4 teaspoon salt
06 - 1/4 teaspoon paprika
07 - 1 to 2 teaspoons cold water, as needed
→ Grapes
08 - 1 1/3 cups seedless red or green grapes, washed and dried
→ Optional Additions
09 - 1 ounce roasted almonds or walnuts
10 - 1.5 ounces dark chocolate squares
# Directions:
01 - Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
02 - In a food processor, combine the cheddar cheese, flour, cold butter, salt, and paprika. Pulse until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
03 - Add the sourdough starter and pulse until a dough begins to form. Add cold water one teaspoon at a time if needed to bring the dough together.
04 - Roll out the dough between two sheets of parchment paper to approximately 1/8 inch thickness.
05 - Cut the dough into 3/4 inch squares using a sharp knife or pizza cutter. Use a skewer or fork to poke a hole in the center of each square for authentic appearance.
06 - Transfer the squares to the prepared baking sheet, spacing them slightly apart to allow for even baking.
07 - Bake for 16 to 18 minutes, or until golden brown and crisp. Allow to cool completely on the baking sheet.
08 - Divide the cooled Cheez-Its and grapes evenly among four airtight containers. Add optional nuts or chocolate squares if desired.
