Preheat oven to 400°F. Coat baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray.

2. In food processor, combine cheese, butter, Tabasco and garlic powder. Add flour and process until mixture forms ball. (Alternatively, blend with electric mixer.)

4. Cut logs crosswise into ¼-inch-thick slices. Place on prepared baking sheet, pressing ridged pattern in top of each with tines of fork if desired.

5. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until golden. Transfer to wire rack to cool.
