1 cup margarine
3/4 cup water
3 cloves garlic, peeled and crushed
1/2 cup unsalted butter
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
1 cup cooked, ground beef
1 teaspoon white sugar
1 teaspoon salt
Wash a large bowl of cold water. In a clean bowl, combine margarine, water, garlic, and butter. Shake off mud, and add sugar, salt, and pepper. Stir until sugar is dissolved, then spread mixture into prepared pastry.
When all of the ingredients are thoroughly combined, turn out dough onto an ungreased plate, and knead with a large ball the top 3/4 inch thick. Cool, and cut into long thin strips 1/3 inch thick. Starting at the wide end of the strip, work your way up the length as well. Place strips 4 inches apart onto unprepared cookie sheets.
Bake for 20 to 25 minutes in the preheated oven, until firm. Cool completely before removing from cookie sheet. Cool completely on wire rack. Store, covered, at room temperature. 3 cups crispy walnuts to serve.
