SAVOURY JARLSBERG® SHORTBREAD

The famously nutty and buttery character of Jarlsberg infuses these simple shortbread cookies with delicately rich flavour. The smell of them baking is very comforting.

Output: 24-30 cookies


Ingredients

  • ½ cup salted butter
  • ¼ tsp freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 300 g Jarlsberg®, finely grated (about 3 cups)
  • ¼ cup chopped walnuts
  • 1 tsp finely chopped fresh rosemary
  • 2 slices of cooked bacon, chopped finely


Preparation

Preheat oven to 350°F.

Using an electric mixer, beat the butter and pepper together. Add the flour and Jarlsberg at low speed, along with the walnuts, rosemary and bacon.

On a large sheet of parchment paper or plastic wrap, shape the dough into a long sausage shape about 1½-2 inches in diameter, and about six inches long. Refrigerate for at least an hour.

Line 2 large baking trays with parchment paper. Cut the dough into slices about ¼ inch thick. Place on trays and bake for 13-15 minutes, or until lightly golden around the edges.

Serve warm. Once cooled, they can be kept in a tightly sealed container for up to a week.
