  2. Sprinkle with grated cheese and a little paprika.

  3. Fold and roll out, then sprinkle and fold twice more.

  4. Roll the last time to ½ inch thick.

  5. Cut into straws and place on baking pans.

  6. Chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.

  7. Bake in a 400°F (200°C) oven for 10 to 15 minutes.
