Herb and cheese cookies recipe with step by step photos. Sharing a very easy to make crispy, crunchy and cheesy cookies flavored with dried herbs. This herb and cheese cookies was in my mind for a long time and got to bake them last week. So cheesy and so flavorful this herb and cheese cookies will be a hit when served with coffee.

I have used whole wheat flour to make these herb and cheese cookies. You can use cheddar or even mozeralla cheese in these cookies. You can use any dried herbs of your choice. I have used dried basil, oregano and parsley. Do not try to reduce or replace butter in this recipe as butter makes these cookies very crispy and crumbly.

To make herb and cheese cookies recipe as I said above I have used wheat flour. You can use maida or combination of both. Remove the cookies from oven once the edges are slightly golden brown and cookies are firm to touch. Do not wait for the cookies to change color completely.

Serve herb and cheese cookies at room temperature with coffee.
