Notes

When you scoop the avocado out just sprinkle lemon juice over it to avoid getting it black.
The dough should be kneaded stiff.
Be careful while adding salt as the cheese and butter both have cheese in it.
Other seasonings can be added such as mint powder, onion powder, paprika .
Do not over bake the straws or else they will brown fast and taste bitter.
The straws will be soft when hot but will turn crisp once cooled.
