Sharp cheddar cheese

1 piece (6 oz.), grated

All-purpose flour

1 ½ cups (spooned, leveled) + more to dust the work surface

Unsalted butter

8 tbsp. (1 stick), room temperature

Dry mustard powder

Salt

Ground pepper

Preheat the oven to 425° F/220° C/Gas Mark 7.
Add all the ingredients to the food processor and, using a cutting blade, pulse until you form a dough.
Lightly flour the work surface and place the dough on the surface. Divide the dough into 4 pieces and roll each piece into a rope of 3/8 inch in diameter and 18 inches long.
Cut every rope into 6 3-inch pieces and place them on the baking sheet, 1 inch apart.
Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until golden and firm. Put to a wire rack to cool.
