Ingredients:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, chilled and cut into small pieces

Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, thyme, rosemary, and garlic powder.
3. Add the grated cheddar cheese and chilled butter to the bowl. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
4. Add 3 tablespoons of cold water to the bowl and mix until the dough comes together. If the dough is too dry, add another tablespoon of water.
5. Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to about 1/8 inch thickness. Use a cookie cutter or a knife to cut the dough into desired shapes.
6. Place the crackers on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
7. Let the crackers cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
8. Serve the Cheese and Herb Crackers with your favorite dip or enjoy them on their own as a tasty snack.
