Parmesan Crisps

A very dear friend of mine, whom I've known for most of my life recently had a baby - I was so honored to host a baby shower for her and her sweet, precious baby boy!  Not only did I get to hold him and hug him, but it also gave me a chance to cook and bake for a group of gals.  Woot woot! 

Here is what was on the menu -

Today, here is the recipe for Parmesan Crisps.  It's a ONE ingredient recipe!  It was so elegant and light - perfect for an afternoon baby shower.  It pairs very nicely with sparkling wine, sparkling water and strawberries!

Parmesan Crisps

Ingredients
- 4 oz. Parmesan Reggiano Cheese

Heat oven to 350 degrees.

Finely grate 2 oz. cheese, set in a bowl.  Finely shred another 2 oz. cheese and mix together with grated cheese.

On a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, take 1/2 tablespoon scoops and pile on parchment paper.  I usually did 12 on a baking sheet.  place in oven and bake for 6 minutes.  Repeat until all cheese is used. 

Serve (can be made a couple of hours ahead of time). 

They were light, crisp, salty and very delicious!

And - here's a little peek of the cupcakes I made - those were also y.u.m.m.y.!!!
