Yield Makes 12 servings.

Number Of Ingredients 8

1-1/2 cups flour
1/2 cup cornmeal
1 Tbsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1/3 cup cold shortening
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup milk
4 oz. (1/2 of 8-oz. pkg.) KRAFT Colby & Monterey Jack Cheese, cut into 12 cubes

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 450°F.
  • Mix first 4 ingredients in large bowl until well blended. Cut in shortening with pastry blender or 2 knives or until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Mix sour cream and milk. Add to flour mixture; stir with fork just until mixture forms soft dough. (Do not overmix.)
  • Knead on lightly floured baking sheet 10 times or until smooth. Pat or roll out dough to 12x8-inch rectangle. Cut into 12 (4x2-inch) rectangles with pizza wheel. Place 1 cheese cube about 3/4 inch from edge of 1 short side of each rectangle. Brush edges of dough with water; fold dough over cheese to form 2-inch square. Firmly pinch edges of dough together to seal. Arrange evenly on baking sheet.
  • Bake 12 to 15 min. or until lightly browned.
