Ingredients
Instructions
  1. In the bowl of an electric stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream the butter for 2 minutes or until creamy. Turn the mixer on low and add the Parmesan, thyme, salt and pepper until combined.
  2. Add the flour and combine until the mixture forms large crumbs, about 2 minutes.
  3. Form the dough into a ball with your hands and place on a floured work surface. Continue to press dough firmly together while rolling out into a log, approximately 12 inches long.
  4. Wrap the log in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least one hour (or for up to 4 days).
  5. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  6. Cut the log into 1/4″ thick slices, using a sharp knife and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  7. Bake for 21-23 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool and serve at room temperature.
