In a food processor, combine the flour, cold butter, Parmesan cheese, chopped rosemary, salt, and black pepper. Pulse until the mixture has a coarse, sandy texture.
Slowly add the ice water, one tablespoon at a time, pulsing between additions, until the dough begins to hold together when pinched.
Turn the dough out onto a clean surface and gather it into a ball. Flatten it into a disk, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or until firm.
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the chilled dough to about 1/8-inch thickness. Use a knife or cookie cutter to cut the dough into your desired cracker shapes.
Transfer the crackers to the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between them to prevent sticking.
Bake the crackers in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the edges are golden brown and crisp.
Remove the crackers from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store the crackers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week. Enjoy on their own or paired with your favorite spreads or cheeses!
