A cheese snack with sesame seeds will be your favorite home-made treat. Cheese sticks with sesame seeds are well suited not only for beer, but also for wine (preferably white).

- drain. oil - 150 gr;
- flour - 1 glass .;
- sugar - ⅓ tea l .;
- coarse salt;
- egg;

We put the oil at least an hour before cooking in the freezer - it will need to be grated, and it will be easier to do with frozen oil.
Three butter and cheese in a wide bowl, sift the flour and add sugar. Manually knead the dough - at first in appearance it will look more like buttery crumbs than soft, airy, elastic dough. After a few minutes, when the butter melts, the dough will become soft and soft to the touch, will not stick to your hands and you can roll a ball out of it. The dough is obedient. To make it convenient to form products from it, we make the ball a little flat, wrap it in a film or bag and send it to the freezer so that it freezes a little.
In the meantime, beat the egg until the foam and a more or less homogeneous state of the liquid.
We take out the dough from the freezer, remove it from the film and roll it out a little. Next, you need to form cheese sticks - they should be about the same so that they can bake equally well inside.
There are two options:
- Pinch off approximately the same pieces of dough and roll them with sausages of the same length and thickness.
- Squeeze out identical circles in a stack, which they then roll into sausages.
Put the appetizer on a baking sheet with parchment sheet. Grease the egg mass on top, lightly salt and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
