INSTRUCTIONS

• Cut the butter into small cubes and put it in the refrigerator until required.
• Mix the flour, salt, black pepper and chili flakes together.
• Add the cold, cubed butter into the flour and using your hands, mix till it resembles a coarse sand-like texture.
• Directly grate the cheese into the flour and start to bring the mixture together into a dough. Slowly, add milk to form a semi-soft dough.
• Place the dough in a bowl, cover and put it away in the refrigerator for 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, pre-heat the oven to 180 degree C. Line a baking tray or pan with baking paper.
• Remove the dough, form equal sized balls and place each ball, slightly flattened on the tray.
• Brush the surface of the cookies with milk, and sprinkle the sesame seeds on top. Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.
