For a richer flavor, use a high-quality aged cheddar cheese. Feel free to adjust the amount of red pepper flakes and hot sauce to suit your preferred level of spice. If you don't have pecans, walnuts or other nuts can be substituted. The dough can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or frozen for up to 2 months. Thaw completely before slicing and baking.
