INSTRUCTIONS:

In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, mix the cheddar, butter, neon orange food gel, and salt until soft and homogenous.
Add the flour and mix on low speed; the dough will be dry and pebbly.
Slowly add the water and continue to mix as the dough collects into a mass.
Pat the dough into a flat disk, wrap tightly with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
Preheat the oven to 375 F. Line one baking sheet with parchment paper or silicone mats.
Using a rolling pin roll out the cracker to a 1/4 inch thickness and then transfer to the baking sheets.
Use the tip of a chopstick to punch a hole into the center of each square, and add the edges to make it look like a cheez-it cracker.
Bake for about 30 minutes or until the crackers are puffed and browning at the edges.
Immediately move the crackers to racks to cool. Let set and then build your Taco Bell Crunchwrap or Tostada. Enjoy!
