Flaky Cheese Twists Recipe

Stir together flour, salt and paprika; add 1/2 cup butter. Using a pastry blender or 2 knives, mix until dough resembles coarse crumbs. Add cheese and mix well. Sprinkle water into mixture, a tablespoonful at a time, mixing lightly until dough clings together. Press into a ball. Roll out on lightly floured surface to a 10x16 inch rectangle.
