I was looking for a unique idea for appetizers for my upcoming wedding reception. I wanted to make the crackers for my crackers/cheese display. I bought a loaf of "Wonder Bread" and decided to experiment a bit. I rolled out a slice of wonder bread, very thin. I then buttered it and sprinkled garlic salt on it. I cut out heart shapes with my cookie cutter and placed them on a non-stick pan. I baked them in the oven for 20-25 minutes at 275 degrees F.
They came out perfect! Little golden-colored, heart-shaped crackers! They will make a great addition to my appetizer tray, especially since you can create the "crackers" in any design you want with the cookie cutters. My daughter and I are going to try using cinnamon sugar on the next batch and see if they work as well- then we'll have homemade crackers and cookies!
Note: 1 loaf of bread makes about 52 crackers (2 per slice).

My mom used to make a kind of light cracker that she called "milk crackers". I think she soaked soda crackers in milk, drained them a little then baked them. I honestly don't remember as I was pretty young. I just remember that they were light and melted in your mouth. If anyone has a recipe similar, please let me know! Thanks!
