Italians call these irresistible treats frico, or "little trifles." Served on their own, they make nice cocktail snacks.

Ingredients
Preparation
Mix cheese and cumin in medium bowl. Spray medium nonstick skillet with nonstick spray; heat over medium heat. Sprinkle 3 tablespoons cheese mixture in 4-inch round lace-like pattern over bottom of skillet. Cook until cheese is melted, bubbling and golden brown, about 4 minutes. Remove skillet from heat. Using thin metal spatula, carefully and gradually loosen edges of cheese crisp; gently transfer to paper towels to cool. Repeat with remaining cheese mixture, cooking 1 cheese crisp at a time and spraying skillet with nonstick spray before each crisp is cooked. Cool. (Can be made 6 hours ahead. Store in airtight container at room temperature.) Serve at room temperature.
