Parmesan Cookies Recipe

Yes, that's absolutely right, savory Parmesan cookies! We love tea in our house and we love tea time snacks. I came up with this simple, quick recipe one afternoon when I had no yummies to serve with tea and they were a hit!

I urge you to use good quality Parmesan Reggiano cheese and real unsalted butter.


These Parmesan cookies are also great to serve on a cheese platter or in a lunch box. Please bake a batch when you want something savory, sharp and cheesy. I know you will love them as much as I do!

  5. Chill for 20 minutes.

  6. Roll out on a floured surface, cut with a small cookie cutter.

Tips and Bits

You can add a 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper for a kick.


I like to roll, cut and freeze these cookies on a flat tray until hard then store in a freezer bag for later.


Serve with jam, fresh fruit, soup or a cup of tea.
