HOW TO MAKE CREAM CRACKERS - DELICIOUS, CRISPY CREAM CRACKERS MADE WITH REAL CREAM!!!

Steps:

• Place the flour, salt, sugar and baking powder in your mixing bowl. Mix this to combine and pour in the cream.
• Using a wooden paddle, mix until all of the cream has been absorbed.
• Using your hands, compress the dough in the bowl, turning and squeezing continuously. Avoid any kneading motion as you don't want any over-development of gluten.
• Turn the dough out onto your work surface and continue compressing the dough until all of the loose bits are incorporated into a single mass.
• Wrap the dough in cling wrap and allow this to rest for 30 minutes.
• After 30 minutes, unwrap the dough and cut it into 4 pieces. Working with 1 piece, pass it through your pasta roller on the thickest setting. Fold the sheet of dough in half and pass it through again. Continue doing this until the dough is smooth.
• Reduce the setting by 1 step and pass it through again. Continue reducing until the dough reaches a thickness of 3mm or 1 eight of an inch. Put this sheet aside and continue rolling the remaining 3 sheets.
• Cut the sheets length-ways down the center, then cut these strips into squares.
• Transfer the squares to un-greased baking sheets and poke 2 sets of holes into each square using a fork.
• Bake the squares in a preheated oven at 180c or 350f for about 8 minutes on each side until lightly browned and risen.
• Serve with the toppings of your choice. Simple or fancy, these go down a real treat.

Pulse until flour and butter are combined. Add about 1/4 cup cream or half-and-half and let machine run for a bit; continue to add liquid a teaspoon at a time, until mixture holds together but is not sticky.
• Roll out dough on a lightly floured surface until 1/2-inch thick or even thinner, adding flour as needed. Transfer sheet of dough to prepared baking sheet (drape it over rolling pin to make it easier). Score lightly with a sharp knife, pizza cutter or a pastry wheel if you want to break crackers into squares or rectangles later on. Sprinkle with salt or other topping if you like.
• Bake until lightly browned, about 10 minutes. Cool on a rack; serve warm or at room temperature or store in a tin for a few days.
