CACIO E PEPE BISCUITS
Basic baking powder biscuits get a cacio e pepe makeover with the addition of spicy, buttery Pecorino-Romano cheese and floral freshly cracked black pepper. The biscuits are ideal for splitting and making breakfast sandwiches, as a side served next to roasted beef or chicken or even alongside a salad topped with bacon and a poached egg for lunch.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment.
- Whisk together the flour, baking powder, black pepper and salt. Rub the butter into the flour mixture with your fingertips, until it is in even pieces about the size of a pea. Stir in 1 cup Pecorino-Romano, then gently stir the in the milk with a fork to make a loose dough.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly-floured work surface. Pat into a 1/2-inch-thick rectangle. Fold the dough into thirds like a business letter. Pat into an 8-by-5-inch rectangle about 3/4-inch thick. Use a 3-inch round cutter to make 6 biscuits. Press together the scraps of dough, cut 2 more biscuits, and put all of them on the prepared baking sheet.
- Lightly brush the tops of the biscuits with the cream, then sprinkle them equally with the remaining 2 tablespoons Pecorino-Romano and a pinch of black pepper. Bake until puffed and golden brown on top, 20 to 22 minutes. Cool on a rack for 5 minutes before serving.
