How long will they keep?

I’m curious, do these need to be stored in the refrigerator since there is cheese in them?

In reply to Melissa L. Hmmm... That's too bad, Melissa! They definitely are a tad oily due to the high fat content, but we've never had a batch that seemed overly oily. I would try simply reducing the amount of olive oil you use. Instead of 8 tablespoons, maybe try 6 and see if you like the end result better?

I just made these and cut them into teddy bears for a “teddy bear picnic” we’re having this weekend. One disappointment though: I find them very oily. Any suggestions?

Oooh! Now we’re talking. Cumin or dill would be really yummy. And I agree – Sprout probably eat them no matter which shape they were! I often use a pizza cutter at the end of my batch when I only have a little dough left. I must admit, I’ve used a tiny shot glass too. :)

Ooh, these are a good idea. I am sadly low on cheddar at the moment, so I will have to wait on making them. I could see them being great with cumin or maybe dill. I also don’t have any teeny cookie cutters, but I think if I just used a pizza cutter to chop them into squares or triangles, Sprout would still eat them… ;)

The salt you could definitely do without, but the cheese would be pretty tricky to omit! :)

I found our mini cookie cutters at our local grocery store on a whim, but you can buy a much cuter mini fish cutter here: http://www.coppergifts.com/cookie-cutters/pc/Fish-Cookie-Cutter-mini-tiny-p1947.htm.

Those look great! I have written down the recipe, and will try and make my way towards doing them soon. The catch is it will require a trip to the grocery store (because we ate all of our cheese, plus I need sea salt) and I am a bit under the weather today.
Where oh where to find little cookie cutters…perhaps mine will be a blob shape.

In reply to heidibird. Aw, thanks! I do too! It was a very unexpected Christmas gift from my husband's parents. :)
