Cheese Biscuits

These cheese biscuits from Garrett are the best, enjoy! ~Elise

There are a three secrets to making successful biscuits.

1. You have to be willing to get your hands dirty. Mixing with a spoon overworks the dough. Your hands keep things delicate. Plus, all that squishing and making a mess is fun. (Or put the kids to work. They'll love it.)

2. Keep your butter cold. This ensures plenty of rise, rich flavor, and delicate layers of puffy biscuit.

3. Add lots of cheese. I mean LOTS. Because cheese is good.

Follow these steps and I promise you perfect biscuits every time.

These biscuits only take about five minutes of active work and 12-16 minutes to bake. This means you can whip these babies up in no time flat for picnics, last minute guests, or dinner parties.

The cut up biscuit dough can be frozen in an airtight container and stored for a few months. This means that if you want to double or triple the recipe and save some aside for quick baking later you can. Just plop them on a tray, sling 'em into the oven, and sit back.
