Use a pastry blender to mix until the mixture forms coarse crumbs.

Add half a teaspoon of salt.

Add 220 grams of shredded sharp cheddar cheese.

Gradually add 2 tablespoons of water, one tablespoon at a time, and use hands to form the mixture into dough.

Separate the dough into two portions and wrap in plastic wrap; chill in the refrigerator for about 20 minutes.

Preheat oven to 330°F (170°C).

Remove the dough from the refrigerator and place it between two pieces of parchment paper.

Roll out the dough to about 1/8 inch thickness.

Use a fish-shaped cookie cutter to cut out shapes and re-roll remaining dough.

Bake for 15 to 17 minutes until golden around the edges.

Let cool on the baking tray for about 10 minutes, then move to a wire rack.
