Ingredients:
Nonstick cooking spray
3/4 cup all-purpose flour, plus 3 tablespoons for dusting cutting board
1/3 cup finely grated reduced-fat sharp cheddar cheese, firmly packed
2 tablespoons butter, chilled
2 tablespoons fat-free cream cheese
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 large egg yolk
3 tablespoons ice water
Kosher salt, optional

1
Preheat oven to 400u00b0. Coat the cookie sheet with nonstick cooking spray. Dust the cutting board with 3 tablespoons flour.
2
Place the 3/4 cup flour, cheddar cheese, butter, cream cheese, and salt in a medium mixing bowl. Using a pastry blender, blend until the mixture looks like a cross between Rice Krispies and cookie crumbs.
3
Place the egg yolk in a small bowl; add ice water and blend. Pour into cheese mixture; combine with a fork or your hands until it forms a ball.
4
Roll the dough around on cutting board; flatten it with your hands. Roll it out until it's about 1/4 inch thick. Cut into shapes using cookie cutters. Arrange the shapes on cookie sheet.
5
Lightly spray tops of crackers with cooking spray, then sprinkle with kosher salt, if desired. Bake until lightly browned, about 8 to 10 minutes. With a spatula, transfer to a wire rack to cool. The crackers will keep for up to two weeks refrigerated in a tightly sealed container.
