Instructions

  1. Mix the butter with the cheese well. Knead in the cream, salt and the paprika powder. Quickly knead in the flour sifted with the baking powder. Divide the dough into two or three servings and leave to rest in the refrigerator for about two hours.
  2. Roll out the dough portions one after the other on a floured surface to a thickness of about 6 mm. Cut out cheese feet and place on the baking sheet lined with baking foil. Brush on the beaten egg yolk and sprinkle with poppy seeds, caraway seeds, etc. if you like.
  3. The cheese feet are baked in the oven preheated to 200 ° C on the middle rack for about 15 minutes until golden brown. Place on a wire rack to cool down.
  4. Variation: How about cheese hands on top of that? There are also small cookie cutters for hands. And if you want to have right and left feet or hands, simply turn the shape around.

About Editorial Staff

The Boss Kitchen editorial staff oversees content review, fact-checking, and recipe verification across the site. Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
