Add softened butter and mix until crumbly.

Stir in finely chopped rosemary and black pepper.

Gradually add water until a dough forms.

Divide the dough into two equal pieces and shape each into a log.

Wrap the logs in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Slice the chilled dough into thin rounds, about 1/8 inch thick.

Place the slices on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.

Remove from the oven and let cool on a wire rack.

Serve with dips or enjoy as a snack.
