NOTES
*These will work with your favorite style of paprika (sweet, smoked, hot) or a paprika-inspired spice blend, like Homestead Seasoning or Mapuche Style Merkén Seasoning.
DIRECTIONS
In a large bowl, combine cheeses and butter by hand. Mix dry ingredients together in a separate bowl and add to cheese mixture. Combine all ingredients into a dough ball. Divide dough in half and roll into 2 logs, each about 2 inches in diameter. Wrap logs in wax paper and chill in refrigerator for at least 2 hours or up to several days. (Logs may also be frozen for later use.) When well chilled, cut logs into 1/4-inch thick coins and place on nonstick baking sheets. If desired, sprinkle with extra paprika. Bake at 350 degrees for 8 to 12 minutes until golden and just barely firm. Cool completely on baking sheets before serving.
