My neighbor demanded I bring a double batch to the church fall festival and they were the absolute first thing to disappear. I can’t believe this is only 3 ingredients.

These Southern 3-Ingredient Cheesy Lunchroom Straws transform basic pantry staples into a classic, savory snack. Combining biscuit baking mix, sharp cheddar cheese, and milk, these savory straws bake up puffed and golden with crisp, cheesy edges that are perfect for serving warm or at room temperature.

Southern 3-Ingredient Cheesy Lunchroom Straws

Ingredients:

Step-By-Step Directions:

1. Preheat and prep: Preheat your oven to 425°F (218°C) and line a baking sheet with foil or parchment paper.

2. Mix dry ingredients and cheese: In a large bowl, stir together the biscuit baking mix and shredded sharp cheddar cheese until the cheese is evenly coated in the mix.

3. Form dough: Pour in the milk and stir just until a thick dough forms, taking care not to overmix.

4. Shape and cut: Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Pat or roll the dough into a rectangle about 1/2-inch thick, then cut into narrow strips.

5. Arrange: Place the dough strips on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a small space between each strip.

6. Bake: Bake for 10 to 14 minutes, until the straws are puffed, cooked through, and deeply golden around the edges.

7. Cool and serve: Allow to cool on the tray for a few minutes before serving warm or at room temperature.
