Chili Cheddar Biscuits image

An outstanding biscuit recipe that is especially good with Tex-Mex inspired meals like chili con carne or a spicy beef stew. Or, just split and stuff with scrambled egg and ham or bacon and you've got a mean breakfast!

Time 32m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 1/2 teaspoons double-acting baking powder
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon salt
2 1/2 tablespoons cold butter, cut into bits
6 ounces coarsely-grated cheddar cheese
5 jalapenos, seeded and minced (2 inches long, don't forget to wear kitchen gloves!)
1 1/4 cups sour cream

Steps:

  • Make biscuits: Into a bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, baking soda and the salt; add the butter and blend the mixture until it resembles coarse meal.
  • Stir in the cheddar and the chilies; add the sour cream and stir the mixture until it just forms a soft, but not sticky, dough.
  • Knead the dough gently for 20 seconds (about 6 turns) on a lightly-floured surface.
  • Roll or pat it out ½ inch thick and with a 3 ½ inch cookie cutter, cut out 8 rounds.
  • Bake on an ungreased baking sheet in the middle of a preheated 430F oven for 15-17 minutes, or until they are golden.
