CHEESY PENNY WAFERS
This is a recipe from one of my favorite Reader's Digest cookbooks (called Down Home Cooking). It's an English appetizer recipe that's easy to make and lower in fat than traditional versions of this recipe because it uses low-fat cheese.

Steps:
- In the bowl of a food processor, process the cheese and butter for 30 seconds or just until combined.
- With the machine running, slowly pour the oil through the food chute. Then add the flour, mustard, and red pepper, and process another 30 seconds or just until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. (To keep the wafers flaky and tender, avoid overprocessing.).
- Remove the dough, press into a ball, and roll in plastic wrap. Place on flat plate and let chill in refrigerator for 30 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 350°F, and set out two ungreased baking sheets.
- Shape the dough into 40 balls, about 1/2-inch in diameter, and place them 2 inches apart on the baking sheets. Using the back of a fork, lightly flatten each ball twice, making a criss-cross pattern, until the dough resembles a coin about 1/8-inch thick.
- Bake (at 350°F) for 15 minutes or just until crisp but not browned. Transfer to wire rack, dust the tops lightly with paprika, and let cool.
- Store in air-tight container for up to 2 weeks, or you can freeze it for up to 3 months.

LEMON DROP WAFERS
This easy-to-prepare cookie was inspired by the penny-candy-store lemon drop. The candied lemon peel, available at specialty-food stores, adds a lemony crunch.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line two baking sheets with Silpat baking mats or parchment paper, and set aside.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream butter and 1 cup sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, 3 to 5 minutes, scraping down sides of bowl twice. Add egg; mix on high speed until combined. Add lemon zest, and beat to combine.
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Add to butter mixture, and mix on low speed until combined, about 20 seconds. Add candy, and mix to combine. Transfer dough to a sheet of plastic wrap, and freeze until firm, about 30 minutes.
- Pour remaining 1/2 cup sugar into a large bowl. Shape the dough into 1/2-inch balls. Drop each ball into sugar, and roll, coating completely; use sugar to keep dough from sticking to hands.
- Working in batches, place sugared balls on prepared baking sheets, 2 inches apart. Gently press balls, flattening to a 1/4-inch thickness. Transfer remaining dough to refrigerator.
- Bake cookies just until golden, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool. Repeat with the remaining dough. Store in an airtight container up to 1 week.

Steps:
- Adjust oven rack to center of oven (these will bake 1 sheet at a time).
- Preheat oven to 400°.
- If you have cookie sheets with only one raised rim (best for recipe) or use any cookie sheet turned upside down.
- Line sheets with foil, shiny side up. (Don't use heavyweight, or cookies won't bake well) set aside.
- Pour 1 cup of peanuts in bowl of a food processor fitted with a metal chopping blade.
- Add a few tablespoons of the sugar and briefly pulse machine 10 times to chop nuts into coarse pieces.
- Some will be powdery, some coarse, and some whole, it is okay, set aside.
- Melt butter in a small pan over moderate heat; set aside for now.
- Combine sifted flour and baking soda; set aside.
- Place egg, milk, melted butter, and remaining sugar in small bowl of an electric mixer.
- Beat until mixed; add sifted dry ingredients and the peanuts. Beat again until mixed.
- Transfer to shallow bowl for ease in handling. Spray a foil-lined sheet with Pam.
- Place dough by slightly rounded tablespoonfuls (not heaping) on sheet, placing the mounds 3 inches apart. Try to keep shapes neat.
- Top each with a few of the peanuts (if you like or with as many as you can fit on the top each cookie).
- Bake 1 sheet at a time. After 5 minutes, reverse sheet front to back.
- Cookies will rise, spread out, then flatten into very thin wafers with bumpy tops.
- They will spread out to 3 1/2 to- 4 1/2-inches in diameter.
- Cookies should bake until golden brown, then remove from oven.
- If cookies have run into each other, cut apart immediately while very hot.
- Cool on sheet for 1 or 2 minutes, then slide foil off sheet.
- Let cookies stand until firm enough to be removed.
- Will be easy to peel the foil away from backs.
