"These are crispy and yummy and so easy to make. They go great with soup, and look so pretty with a tossed salad. You can either do these in a nonstick fry pan or in the oven on a well-greased parchment sheet. You need one tablespoon of cheese for one crisp."

Step by Step Method

Step 1

IN A FRYING PAN: If you choose a nonstick frying pan on the top of the stove, spray it with cooking spray and put 1 tablespoon of cheese for each crisp in the pan; flatten out a little in the pan with the back of a spoon.

Step 2

On a medium heat, cook them till you can safely turn them over and cook on the other side--you don't want to burn them; carefully take out and put them on a paper towel to dry.

Step 3

IN THE OVEN: If you do them in the oven, heavily grease the parchement paper with butter or spray well with cooking spray, and do the same as above; put in a 350 degree oven for about 6-7 minutes, watching carefully so they don't burn.

These are so much pure fun to make and eat! They turn from piles of Parmesan into little crisp and lacy circles. I did need to adjust temperatures and times a bit for my oven (375 degrees for 8-9 minutes) and I didn't grease the parchment at all. On two of them, I sprinkled the tops with smoked paprika to see what would happen. They all turned out perfectly. Thanks, Mimi.
