Parmesan Crisps

(These can be made a couple of days ahead and stored in an airtight container. Layer crisps with wax paper.)

Makes 8 crisps
Preheat oven to 325 degrees.

Line a large baking sheet with a Silpat. You can use parchment paper, if you do not have a Silpat. Take a 2.5 inch biscuit cutter and place about 2 tablespoons of the cheese into the cutter. Press down a little on the cheese, to shape. Gently remove cutter. Repeat until you have made 8 mounds of cheese. If you like, add a little pinch of black pepper on top of each one. Bake for about 7-8 minutes, just until set and before they start to turn golden. Remove from oven, let cool on pan for a few minutes. They will firm up as they cool. Gently lift off with a spatula.
