Cheese Pennies

1. 1

   Combine butter and cheese and mix well. Add rest of ingredients, except pepper and pecans. Add a few grains of cayenne pepper; mix thoroughly. Divide into 4 pieces. Roll each into a cylinder (silver dollar size). Wrap in foil and freeze. To serve, partially defrost roll; cut slices 1/4-inch thick. Top with pecan halves, if desired and bake on a greased cookie sheet at 400u00b0 for 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from pan while warm to prevent breaking. Yield: 3 dozen.
