These make great Party Hors d Oeuvres. They are easy to make. They take very little ingredients most of which you will have on hand, that makes them very convenient. You can freeze the rolls of raw dough for a couple of months. Take out a roll, slice while preheating the oven. It's as easy as that. You can freeze the baked crackers for up to a month for fresh baked taste. This was always a good bridal luncheon, shower stand-by.
