Chef notes
Cacio e Pepe (cheese and pepper) is one of my favorite pastas, so when I realized I could transform it into a chip it seemed like a no-brainer! This recipe is as simple as it gets, and it comes together in a matter of minutes. It's the perfect festive snack for your end-of-year celebration!
Technique tip: For easy clean up, line your baking sheet with tin foil.
Swap option: You can experiment with a variety of different chip flavors and cheeses.
