Herb and Cheese Biscuits
This is a recipe my brother and I crafted one day to go along with my mom’s famous potato soup. It quickly became a favourite in my family and now we make them with all kinds of soups!
Ingredients
Method
- In a bowl stir together flour, baking powder, sugar, cream of tartar, rosemary, paprika, and salt.
- Using your hands or a pastry blender, squish in butter until it resembles coarse crumbs.
- Mix in cheese, then make a well in the centre, add the milk, and stir until dough clings together.
- On a lightly floured surface, knead the dough gently for 10 to 13 strokes.
- Roll the dough to 1/2 inch thickness and cut out with a round cookie cutter.
- Transfer to a cookie sheet prepared with parchment paper and bake for 12 minutes or until golden.
Notes
Tip: If you don’t have a cookie cutter, you can use a glass with a 2 1/2 inch rim
