Ingredients

Cheddar cheese, shredded – the crispy, golden glue that holds this snack dream together.
Dill pickles, cut into 1/4″ rounds – Tangy little rounds of joy that bring the crunch and zing.

Instructions

1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and preheat your oven to 350°F.
2. Slice your dill pickles into 1/4-inch rounds and pat them dry with paper towels like they just finished a spa day.
3. Spread the cheddar cheese onto the cookie sheet in an even layer.
4. Add the pickle slices on top—space them out like they’re on a beach vacation.
5. Bake for 25-30 minutes until the cheese is golden, crispy, and begging to be devoured.
6. Let cool slightly, break into bite-sized pieces, and try not to eat the whole tray (good luck).

Tips for Trendy Snacking

Dry = Crunchy: Moisture is the enemy of crispiness. Leave the pickle slices on a paper towel or in the fridge overnight to dry out before baking.
Add flair: Sprinkle bagel seasoning or dried dill on top before baking for an extra punch of flavor.
Use an air fryer: Yep, this recipe works in an air fryer too! Try 375°F for 8–10 minutes—just keep an eye on it.
Mini muffin pan fun: Want individual cheesy pickle chip cups? Try baking in a mini muffin pan for built-in portion control.
Try different cheese: Cheddar is classic, but don’t sleep on Colby jack, Monterey, or even spicy jalapeño cheese.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I make these ahead of time?
Totally! Just store the crispy chips in an airtight container. Pop them back in the oven for a couple minutes if you need to revive the crunch.
