These cheesy crisps are the perfect savory snack or appetizer. They're crispy, cheesy, and packed with flavor. Serve with your favorite dipping sauce or sprinkle them on top of salads or soups.
The inspiration for these crisps came to me one day when I was craving something cheesy and crunchy. I had some leftover sharp cheddar and Parmesan cheese in my fridge, and I decided to experiment with making some crisps in my air fryer. The first batch was a little too thick and didn't crisp up as well as I wanted, so I made a few adjustments to the recipe and the second batch turned out perfectly. These crisps are now a staple in my house and I make them all the time. They're so easy to make and they're always a hit with my family and friends.

Why It Works
The combination of sharp cheddar and Parmesan cheese gives these crisps a rich and flavorful taste.

Air frying the crisps gives them a crispy exterior and a gooey interior.
