Mix all ingredients with a wooden spoon in a medium bowl. It should come together easily if the butter and cream were at room temperature. I kneaded it with my hands for a few minutes to make sure it was mixed thoroughly.
To make cheese straws:
Preheat oven to 350. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Put the dough in a cookie press with the bumpy line attachment. (Descriptive, I know. Basically, it's a one-inch line opening with one flat side and one side with ridges).
Press the dough through the cookie press onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. If desired brush with extra melted butter and sprinkle with a tiny bit of garlic powder.
Bake for 12-15 min out until golden brown.
