Instructions

Parmesan Crisps

  1. Spread out the cheese thinly in a pan.  Heat up the pan on medium heat.  Cook the parmesan until the edges start to turn golden brown.   You should be able to flip the cheese over as a whole, almost like a cupcake!  Cook on the other side for another minute and then set aside.
