Description

Ingredients

• 4 ounces cheddar cheese, grated
• 3 tablespoons minced fresh chives
• ½ cup diced cooked bacon
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• ½ teaspoon salt
• ¼ cup (1/2 stick) butter
• ¾ cup milk

Directions

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
• In a small bowl, toss together cheese, chives, and bacon with 1 tablespoon flour. Set aside.
• In a separate bowl whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Use a pastry cutter or two forks to cut in butter.
• Add milk and stir just enough to bring the ingredients together. This should make a soft dough. Gently fold in the cheese mixture.
• Turn dough onto a floured surface and knead for about 1 minute.
• Pat or roll out dough to ½ or ¾-inch thickness.
• Cut into rounds (I used a 2 ½ inch round biscuit cutter, but a juice glass will also work!).
• For crisp biscuits, place far apart on an ungreased baking sheet. For fluffier biscuits, place them close together on an ungreased baking sheet.
• Bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown on top.
