If you’re looking for a healthy potato recipe that will make a great Hanukkah side dish, these Golden Dollars will be a crowd-pleaser. Our version of this cheese potatoes recipe is made with flour, Cabot Sharp Cheddar cheese, Cabot Salted Butter, Tabasco sauce and garlic powder – and coated with poppy seeds or toasted sesame seeds. The ingredients are combined using a food processor (or an electric mixer), which helps to keep the Golden Dollars tender by limiting the handling of the dough, and they’re baked until lightly golden and perfectly crisp. Cheesy, buttery and with just the right amount of spicy flavor, this healthy side dish is sure to be a hit at special celebrations, as well as on any ordinary day. Share this cheese potatoes recipe with friends and family on Facebook, Pinterest, Twitter or Instagram – and be sure to use our handle @cabotcheese when posting on Instagram.

To make about 36 cheese potatoes, preheat your oven to 400°F. Coat a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray.

In a food processor combine Cabot Sharp Cheddar cheese, Cabot Salted Butter, Tabasco and garlic powder. Add flour and process until the mixture forms a ball. (Alternatively, blend with an electric mixer.)

Divide the dough in half. Shape into two logs, each about 1¼ inches in diameter. Roll logs in poppy seeds or toasted sesame seeds to coat. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or until firm.

Cut logs crosswise into ¼ inch-thick slices. Place on prepared baking sheet, pressing a ridged pattern into the top of each slice with the tines of a fork, if desired.

Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until golden. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.
