Ingredients

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 large onion, cut into 1/2-inch squares (about 2 cups)
4 cups cake flour or all purpose flour
4 teaspoons baking powder
1 tablespoon coarse salt
2 cups freshly grated Parmesan cheese (about 5 ounces)
2 cups chilled whipping cream

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Position rack in center of oven and preheat to 375°F. Heat oil in large skillet over medium heat. Add onion; sauté until golden. Season with salt and pepper.

Turn dough out onto lightly floured work surface. Divide dough in half; sprinkle lightly with flour if sticky. Pat each half into 3/4-inch-thick round. Cut each round into 6 wedges. Transfer wedges to large baking sheet, spacing evenly apart.
