Ingredients
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
- ¼ cup melted butter
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ¼ tsp paprika
- Salt, to taste
Directions
Preheat the Oven
Set your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

In a medium bowl, combine the shredded cheddar, flour, melted butter, garlic powder, paprika, and a pinch of salt. Stir until the mixture comes together into a soft dough. It’ll smell amazing already!
Shape the Bites
Roll the dough into small 1-inch balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about an inch apart to give them room to spread slightly.

Cool & Enjoy
Let the bites cool for a few minutes—if you can wait! Serve warm for maximum cheesy crunch.
