Prepare the Cheese Mixture

In a medium bowl, combine the aged cheddar cheese, unsalted butter, cream cheese, truffle oil, and black pepper. Mix until well blended and creamy.

Make the Dough

In a large bowl, mix the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add water, mixing until a soft dough forms. Knead briefly.

Heat vegetable oil in a deep frying pan over medium-high heat. Roll dough into small balls, then flatten into discs. Fry until golden brown on both sides. Drain on paper towels.
