my day off turned into a two-day cheese cracker recipe situation

- Perfecting a homemade cheese cracker recipe was not the original goal for today, but as most of the fun activities I try to enjoy ‘casually,’ I ended up taking it much further than I had anticipated…or really wanted, to be honest.
I decided to challenge myself by testing three different recipes: one generated by AI, one found on a food blog, and one that I created myself after a bit of trial and error.
Join me as I experiment with these recipes, share my thoughts, and discover which one comes out on top! This isn't a typical instructional recipe video so I apologize in advance to anyone that's actually proficient in the art of homemade ANYTHING - this was definitely more about the journey and the fun of experimenting. 💀😂

In the Round 2 recipe, I forgot to list the cheese. 😂 The online recipe said 4 oz of cheese for that one!
Ghost Lady?
@@andorrasrevenge1683that was in reference to the round 2 recipe slide where the speech bubble from the food blogger said “if you change anything about the recipe I will haunt you from my grave.” And I doubled the cheese, securing my place on the top of gam gam’s “to haunt” list.
So glad for this response, I thought I was the only one that saw that. I was concerned.
Thank you SO MUCH for this recipe Elyse. I can’t eat gluten and I LOVE LOVE cheese crackers. RIP ruler 😢
"This isn't an emergency. My body and mind think that it is." Wow, I have never heard anything more relatable in all of my life.
Anxiety in a nutshell🙃
That was my response too! 😮
Elyse attempting to settle on a not-awkward pose with the rolling pin, then pin-slapping herself in the face made me audibly laugh out loud. NEEDED THAT TODAY! Thanks for being so real and keeping in those silly little moments. We love you, E!
I wish I could say I planned that but I absolutely did not and it was one of those hits to the face that hurt way more than it had any business hurting Hahahhaa I’m glad it made it into the video though because at least it wasn’t wasted 😂😂😂
@@elyse_myers That blue sticky tack stuff could have been a whole thing to hold the waxed paper to the table. Just saying. 😉
This is so me that I laughed. Sorry Elyse. Glad you're okay
@@silverhairedqueen❤oh my gosh YOU ARE GENIUS.
Genius system for the book tags
This is the perfect level of chaotic baking.
I’m so glad you think so 😂
Bees ball up the pollen and stick it on their legs as they work, so when they get back to the beehive they are wearing pollen pantaloons.
I LOVE KNOWING THIS SO MUCH.
@@elyse_myers And sometimes they fall off, hence the pollen in the air.
lolol. You'd think if their one job was to carry pollen, god would've given them baskets. 😄
Pollen pantaloons! I love that. I love bees lol. I often call my chickens leg feathers pantaloons haha.
@@kyleebristow6223they’re called pollen baskets lol
Thank you for being here. The amount of joy I find watching anything you create means so much.
This means so much. Thank you!!
I would *definitely* subscribe to ‘Class with Elyse’ … where you teach random but awesome life facts. 😂
100% here for that too!
Yes!
You’d never know what was coming from week to week but I can guarantee you that you’d be entertained. 😂
Teaching time with Elise is definitely becoming my favorite segment 😄
I often give my baking a pep talk, its the only way. Chuck it in the oven "you're gonna do great, see you soon" 😂
Haha, as a professional baker for 10yrs, I totally do this too! My husband thinks it’s funny, but cute
I started with that and then IMMEDIATELY undercut myself and wish I hadn’t. 😂 I had such little faith in those round 1 crackers, I regret telling them they were going to be terrible 😂😂
@@elyse_myersI also think the almond flour brought them down, for that first recipe. But cheering you on, awesome Elyse! 🙌🏻 You bring such joy and happiness to this world, and your videos always brighten my day!
When you broke the ruler, it made me belly laugh. I realized I hadn’t laughed today and really needed that. Thank you, Elyse!
Same
Omgosh, yes! Like it's so comforting to know someone as cool as Elyse does stuff like that! 😊
I laughed so hard at that and many other parts like tumbleweeds of the sky. 😅
Same here! 😂❤️
Same!! 🤣 and then I felt bad for laughing because it was her favorite ruler lol. I hope she finds another one 🥹
I have had a truly horrible mental health day where my brain is being the biggest bully to me about a promotion that I got at work proving that my brain can turn literally anything into a painful experience, but this video has really cheered me up and I’ve watched it several times now and thank you for it.
Congratulations! I hope your brain lets you celebrate and feel good about it at some point! 💕
Oh my gosh, first of all…CONGRATS on your promotion! Secondly, I wish I could open up my mind and show you how deeply I understand the level of self-sabotage my brain unleashes onto me when it has no business being unkind to me. I’m with you and I wish it was different for both of us. But I’m so proud of you, and I’m positive you deserve this incredible opportunity!
I literally just got a couch and a dresser and now I'm beating myself up about the fact that I have to own furniture and figure out how to move out of my house to my new house instead of being grateful that I have my own furniture for the first time ever like I feel like we all just wanna go onto the next step quickly because we want to be able to relax after it's all done but we have to find out ways to relax and congratulate ourselves in each moment and I know it's really hard and I understand how you might feel:(
"If plants can thrive on happy words, then so can cheese crackers."
Love it.
and they did!!
That’s definitely science fact right there. Agreed.
Ugh, I love it when you post a video. Then I know I get my daily dose of relatable and not feeling alone with my struggles.
I’m so glad you’re here!!!
If you see a ghost of an only lady and are concerned, please refer to the speech bubbles at 10:54 and it’ll all make sense 😂
😂
I probably wouldn’t have clicked on anyone else making cheese crackers. But I knew that making cheese crackers with you would be enjoyable to watch. 😂 I love this!
Honestly this is such high praise hahaha thank you
Honestly if you told me cheez-its had ALMOND FLOUR I would have laughed. So glad you made this! Also when you hit your glasses with the rolling pin...I felt your pain, anytime something hits my glasses it's like instant anger
Well these are a low carb version of cheez-its so that’s why the almond flour! I’m trying to find an alternative that that I can make at home! 😂
Well I will still end up making it at home myself. I could do with less carbs in my life haha
The educational insert about pollination absolutely made my day. 😂😂 Thanks for everything you do (including just being you), Elyse.
Elyse I lost my mind laughing when you broke the ruler. I’m still laughing actually omg. Thank you.
I immediately went onto Amazon to replace that because it truly was my favorite ruler and I can’t explain why hahahha
@@elyse_myers I’m glad you’re able to get the same one back!!!
"my mind and body think this is an emergency" yuuuuuuuuuuup
Omgoodness! Best cooking adventure, pollination class, book review, etc everrrrr! You bring me so much joy. ❤
11:14 ml and grams are the same thing as long as the stuff you're working with has approximately the same density as water. It can be fairly badly off for other liquids, but it works fairly well for most of the stuff you can drink without needing to call poison control.
With everything you have going on in your life you still make time to bring absolute joy to all of us. Thank you!!!!
I see you Elyse! Sitting watching the cooking because you will forget, me too!! Reading is a good in-between! Hilarious the book is scaring you and you have a happy book as a chaser. What a wonderful idea! Genius I say! Thanks for making me laugh! Take care of yourself, your hubby and those precious babies!
Thanks friend! This made me smile so much! 🥹♥️
Elyse your long form videos are everything. Please continue making them!
I lost it at the "what a waste of cheese" mini montage 🤣🤣 I've missed you on TT and glad to see you here!
1.) Rolling pin knocking into you glasses. Relatable.
2.) "I wish it hadn't happened, but that's where we're at." Too relatable!
3.) Thank you for being you!
I love the spur of the moment book review!
The book reviews are some of my favorite parts of these videos.
Hey elyse❤️ I’m 15 years old and have always had alot of anxiety. But last fall my life fell apart, i didn’t wanna wale up in the morning and i never ate enough food. This year i’m getting better and better as the weeks go by but i still have some bad days.. Which is ok! But i never tell myself that, and even if I feel proud of myself really deep down my brain doesn’t believe it because I tell myself that it’s not enough. ANYWAY that’s not important but all i wanted to say is that for the past few months I’ve watched your videos to the point where i know exactly what you’re saying🤭 But just know that i love you so so much and i started crying when I saw you posted❤️ I can’t describe how much you’ve helped me through hard times❤️
I wish so deeply that I could open up my brain and show you who I was at 15 and everything I struggled with. I would wake up and be sick to my stomach and think it was just normal to be sick with nausea in the morning until I realized all of my friends were completely fine and didn’t want to throw up the moment the woke up on the mornings. I’ve always felt like I’m in a battle against my own mind and I’ve been lucky enough to have just enough extra mental energy to surround myself with the right people to help me win those fights against myself. I am so proud of you, and I believe in you. Take everything one single day at a time. I’m 30 and I look back on my 15 year old self with so much compassion and love because she got me to 30. I can’t believe it sometimes but I made it all the way to 30 and I’m going to keep going. You’re doing great. You aren’t alone. You’ve got this! ♥️❤️🩹
@@elyse_myers Thank you so so much, Elyse❤️ It helps alot to hear about other’s experiences, because I tend to think I’m all alone.❤️
@elyse_myers This!! ❤🎉 I am almost 50, and I reach back to my 30 yr-old me, my 16-yr-old me, and my 3 yr-old me frequently. I am become the mature adult friend, and the parent that younger me needed at each stage. Bravo my dear Elyse and everyone who needs encouragement.
you’re honestly so comforting…like the best older sister FaceTime. I hope you’re doing okay 🤍
petition for a dedicated book video ! with more metaphors!
You crack me up with how relatable you are. Love it!!
Elyse, you popped up in my YT feed, and I am embarrassed that I was not already here, after enjoying your content over on that clock based app. This longer form content is great. Glad you are still doing you, you bring us all joy!
Thank you so much, this is so kind!
Elyse I am so obsessed with the videos you’ve been making! So relatable and funny and you bring so much joy 😊 I always get excited to watch when I see you’ve posted!!
The amount of times I rewatched to see how she broke the ruler is unhinged.
😭😂😂😂
Yesss!! I watched at least 7 times, I'm trying to be as quiet and discreet as I can in this corner of the Barnes and Noble while my way too cool teens shop, and I'm totally failing! Ahh, my side hurts from laughing 😅😂
I literally laugh out loud watching your videos and die laughing during the bloopers. You make the best videos ever
your content is genuinely the only one that makes me laugh out loud. i LOOOOVE your stuff and how authentic you are!!!
The shadow of a grand mom with a cane at 11:30 scared the shit out of me! Lmfao
Paused the video to look for this comment. Thought it was in my head...😂😂😂
Elyse. I love you. Don't you dare change. You've taught me how wonderful it is to be me because I see how wonderful it is for you to be you. Thank you for taking us on the WHOLE journey of these crackers with you. The bees, the busted ruler, the spider, the books. *chef's kiss* perfection.
Elyse, I hope you know how amazing your personality is. I could have sat and watched an hour long version of this video! Your commentary is so naturally hilarious and relatable. That, combined with your fantastic editing had me belly laughing the entire time 😂 I love you! Thank you for being your awesome self ❤️
The cheese mourning! 😂
Oh no the spider saying "just kidding!".... That got me emotional 😅😂😂 thank you for your video. It's always so exciting when you post a new one 😊
Omg I laughed all the way through that! Thank you so much for sharing these moments with us.
"the only thing worse then finding a spider is losing it." yes. so true😭
I am from Australia and have never had Riceroni or heard of it before. I went down a Wikepedia rabbit hole and am now determined to make Pilaf, a parent of Riceroni. Thanks Elyse : )
I felt like I should share as it was very in the Elyse spirit. I am also watching this while forcing myself to rest and take time off : )
Love your videos, I'm definitely having fun!
I'm glad she sorted the bee thing out. I was about to exit to google and then get redirected to bee videos on youtube and go down a rabbit hole with it😂 i love her💜😊
THANK YOU for being YOU and authentic 💛 your videos make me laugh SO hard in my middle of 8 months pp. like as if your reactions are a mirror to my thoughts! Love that bee&pollen 101 hahha
Also 👀 did I spy your tag still on on the bogg bag 🤣 just like ME! But mine was bought 2 yo.. should prob take it off 😅
Love you E!
Elyse, Your an example of a brave hero for me.
PTSD, Severe Agoraphobia and low end of the autism scale (sensory problems to solve). Watching you inspires me mentally to try new things. 💙💚💜✨😁✨
the ruler breaking just had me laugh so hard a coworker stopped by my cube to see if I was okay 😄
Every second of this makes my heart happy! I have really missed your content and been hoping you were still able to be you and share these moments and stories when you had the mental and emotional capacity!! The dad voiceover is absolutely killing me! 🤣
I absolutely love this video! Perfect. Why? I don't know. It's kind of like blanching. Perfect. Wonderful!!
Use the right amount of cheese and a hole. Then I'll be perfect just like you without spiders ❤
Hahahha I love this so much 😂♥️
I missed these videos! I was so happy to see there was a new one today ♥️
Third time’s a charm!
4:16 "we just don't have time for the trick" lmfao shit😂😂😂
Hahahahaha I sent my brother that part of the video and said “I love you” 😂
@@elyse_myers Lol that's great love to see it
An apron is like one massive hand towel 😉 😉 😉! Right???? Lol ❤
Ohhhhhhhhhh the bloopers were the best ever. When you broke the ruler i laughed out loud, so loud 🤣 😂 it been a long time since i have laughed like that. I totally needed that. RIP RULER 📏 🙏 never forgotten 🙏 😆
As the day went on, I began to appreciate the apron very much hahaha
@elyse_myers
Hahaha I am telling you. When I am in the kitchen cooking or cleaning I can't tell you how much it helps. They should make an apron with the Dane kinda material a towel is made from?!?!?! Hmmmmmmm now I need to get the sewing machine out. Dang it 😂
Girl. You are one of the few people that I can sit and watch your videos through.
There is a short list.
Thank you for being you.
The amount of times I laughed out loud BECAUSE I was like, “that’s me!”
Thank you for being here.
This is exactly how it goes when I have a free day with a fun activity. There’s something healing seeing a visual of the “this is supposed to be fun why do I feel panicked” day off activity
I watched you snapping that ruler probably 20 times and I can’t stop crying😂😂 I’m so sorry I’m laughing at your pain but omg
i love watching you do random things 😂 i actually painted your orange painting the other day and made a lemon & lime one as well! you’re inspiring me to try new things lol
I went from having an hour+ long breakdown to laughing for almost the entire video thank you I needed this
The ruler breaking sent me into a fit of laughter and then I proceeded to watch it 10 times 😂😂❤
Sooooo this video popped up AS my two year old was having a tantrum about us not having any more cheese crackers. I immediately started baking along with you when I realized I had just enough ingredients. They are currently baking and I’m already aware your first batch didn’t taste great. Let’s see how my toddler reacts, because now I’m out of cheese too. Loved this!
Omg let me know how they come out!! The main issue with batch number 1 and 2 was not enough cheese to make it crispy and more like a cheez-it. So if you ever make a second batch in the future, usually more cheese will solve all your problems. 😂

The results are in and they are not what I was expecting. Your girls crackers are thick. They aren’t crackers at all actually, but like mini cheesy garlic bread puffs. Incredible discovery. Had to bake for like 51 minutes but having a pretty good time eating them right now. Thanks for the tasty treat idea!
I actually really did want your book review!!! I loved the last ones you recommended.
I just recorded a review of all the books I read in May! It had way more to say than I anticipated so I thought maybe I could get it out by the end of the day but I think it’ll take the weekend to edit down 😂😂 but I think I’ll have it up by Monday or Tuesday at the latest! I shared the best and worst books I read last month and my entire rating scale for how I judge books (It goes more in depth than I have any business actually going for a normal average reader but oh well LOL)
@@elyse_myers YES!! OMG can't wait for your book recommendations! 😍
Your bookmarking system is genuinely great.
Girl, I love you! I laughed so hard. Keep doing things full assed 😂
Love your long videos they’re the best and they bring me joy!
I watched this more than once yesterday and I will now keep it close to my heart when I take myself too seriously. The joy I had belly laughing at the explanation of bees was so needed.
Elyse I watched your other cleaning video and now this video and I would just like you to know that on the scale of not interesting and too interesting videos to clean to, you are definitely on the most interesting end of the scale. Thanks for being awesome and exactly who you are, you make me laugh!
I'm personally very glad you took making a good batch of cheese crackers so seriously! I've had to cut gluten out of my life for health reasons, so a lot of the foods I used to enjoy are off-limits now. Including Cheese-Itz. But your recipe, because it's almond flour, is totally doable! I'm excited to give it a try. Thank you for doing the hard work of figuring out what works and what doesn't.
the bloopers made me laugh so hard today, thank you for being you! I needed that
I was laughing so hard at this video that I woke my son up. I had just put him to bed 20 minutes ago and he just came running into my room worried I was sick because I couldn't catch my breath 😂
Your son sounds great, which means YOU seem great, because clearly you raised him to be very attentive, and that is a very good quality to instill in ur kiddo, so congratulations on being a great mother ☺️
9:06 I love how excited you are and it's so cute I love it! You could even doodle or write what part you left off or a note about it
I loved chaotic cooking with Elyse 😂 Crackers do look tasty! Thanks for the laughter ❤
I honestly can't LOVE this channel and your content ENOUGH. Glad I'm late to the party, now I have so much to watch :D
I'm thankful that good humans like yourself are still out there and you share a bit of your time with us.
I’m so happy you are on here. The world needs you!
How is this the greatest video on the internet to date? 😂
This is such a funny video 😂 the rolling pin hitting your face and you breaking your ruler sent me.
7:03 bro literally I walked from my house to the bus stop and my nose would not stop running. I need to get allergy medicine so badly
Not the “what is blanching?” Side bar….i am still dying of laughter!
Literally everything you do is a masterpiece 😂 I am so glad you are on TH-cam. Thank you for brightening all of our days 🫶
Watching your videos creates a kaleidoscope of emotions like the spinning Mac "things are slowly loading or possibly crashing" wheel but in a "much much better very good" way. Thank you for you.
This video is *chef's kiss* perfection! Thank you for the laughs!
Love watching your videos and always look forward to the next one! Here’s a tip from a fellow cheez-it maker : roll the dough out in a pasta maker! Makes the crackers super thin and it’s not as much work as a rolling pin! Fresh grated cheese also works better because it doesn’t have the starch they add to keep the cheese from sticking together ☺️
“100% ass!!!” That’s my new favorite thing 😂
Elyse is so chaotic …………….. and I love every bit of it!
the emo montage of “what a waste of cheese” 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Never have I ever laughed so hard and cried from laughing so hard 🤣🤣🤣🤣❤️❤️❤️ I adore you and feel like I'm watching myself sometimes and I can't much crack myself up hahaha
You absolutely crack me up! We used to run a daily newspaper (retired now) & on especially bad days, we' d say "Are we having fun yet?"
Please do more baking videos this was so fun 👏🏻😂
I love your videos. Your stories always make me laugh 😂
The intense water drinking had me completely in stitches. Girl 😂
Thank you so much for bringing me so much laughter, Elyse.😂💕
I have never laughed so hard multiple times at a video. Thank you Elyse ❤
Making Cheez-its sounds really fun! My grandma taught me that the big spoons are tablespoons and the little ones are teaspoons so you can substitute them if you don't have measuring cups. Idk if that's actually true, but it's worked for me so far.
I too would be very excited with the label thingy in the back of your book ready for when you need it! I may have to do this with some of my cook books!
My life hurts now. Thank you for the content ❤ I was so invested in your cheese crackers ❤
Haha!! The pollen part.. totally get you. In my region we have Dog Weed trees. They drop cloud clumps and it looks like it's snowing. I call it Spring Snow.
I just can't stop grinning watching videos from you!
Chaotic Adorable! Lol
And you got it mostly right, bees store pollen as their protein source, and then eat it to be able to feed the baby bee larvae after processing it.
Then they also collect nectar which gets processed into honey.
I honestly hope you know how great you are. Thank you for being real. And just being you.
Also your brain is incredible the way it thinks and you are funny AF.
This video was so relatable and so good! It is like the thoughts that go through my head visit other brains too!
This is literally my dream day off... I love everything about this! Also I was with you all the way on the bees moment🤣🤣 I might need to take some notes though, I have homemade goldfish on my list!!
I just love you for being real! It makes me feel less alone. Like you would get me if we met in person. Please keep putting those silly parts in the videos!
