Smoked Cheddar Cheese Crisps

"Addictive little cheese crisps with a smokey flavor. Increase the amount of cayenne if you like an extra 'kick"! Great with cocktails or with tomato soup. Originally from a December 1989 issue of Bon Appetit from a "Festive Holiday Menus" section. When preparing the dough for these appetizers, be sure the butter is very soft."
