Ingredients

3/4 pound freshly grated Cheddar cheese
8 tablespoons butter
1 1/2 cups flour
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
3/4 cup bread crumbs made from whole wheat bread

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Put cheese into the container of a food processor.
Add the butter and flour and cayenne and blend thoroughly.
Scrape the mixture onto a lightly floured board. Shape the dough into approximately 40 marble- shaped rounds. Roll each in the bread crumbs.
Place the rounds one inch apart on a baking sheet.
Place in the oven and bake 15 to 20 minutes or until golden brown. Let cool. The cooked biscuits may be frozen if desired.
