Flakey Cheddar Chive Biscuits

These savory biscuits were perfect alongside a bowl of chili. I threw in some garlic for an extra kick.


Flakey Cheddar Chive Biscuits

2-1/4 cups all-purpose flour
2-1/2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup cold butter, cubed
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
3 tablespoons minced fresh chives
1 cup buttermilk

Preheat oven to 425°. In a large bowl, whisk the first five ingredients. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs; stir in cheese and chives. Add buttermilk; stir just until moistened. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; knead gently 8-10 times.
Pat or roll dough to 3/4-in. thickness; cut with a floured 2-1/2-in. biscuit cutter. Place 2 in. apart on a greased baking sheet. Bake 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm. About 10 biscuits.
