Categories     side-dish

Time 35m

Yield 12-14 biscuits

Number Of Ingredients 12

Cooking spray
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon plus 2 teaspoons baking powder
2 1/2 teaspoons sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons vegetable shortening, at room temperature
4 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
6 ounces grated yellow cheddar cheese (about 1 1/4 cups)
3/4 cup whole milk
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 clove garlic, smashed
1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Position a rack in the upper third of the oven and preheat to 425 degrees. Lightly mist a large baking sheet with cooking spray.
  • Make the biscuits: Pulse the flour, baking powder, sugar and salt in a food processor. Add the shortening and pulse until combined. Add the butter; pulse 4 or 5 times, or until the butter is in pea-size pieces. Add the cheese and pulse 2 or 3 times. Pour in the milk and pulse just until the mixture is moistened and forms a shaggy dough. Turn out onto a clean surface and gently knead until the dough comes together. Do not overwork the dough or the biscuits will be tough.
  • Drop the dough onto the baking sheet in scant 1/4-cup portions, 2 inches apart, and bake until golden, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, make the garlic butter: Melt the butter with the garlic in a small saucepan over medium heat; cook for 1 minute. Remove from the heat and stir in the parsley. Brush the biscuits with the garlic butter and serve warm.

MARINATED CHEESE CUBES



Marinated Cheese Cubes image

Great for entertaining. I've only tried cheddar and Colby-jack so far, but I'm sure other cheeses would work as well. Or use an assortment! The nutritional info is inaccurate since you don't actually eat the marinade.

CHEDDAR DILL PUFFS



Cheddar Dill Puffs image

Categories     Bread     Cheese     Herb     Bake     Cocktail Party     Vegetarian     Quick & Easy     Summer     Gourmet

Yield Makes about 60 hors d'oeuvres

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup water
1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter, cut into tablespoon pieces
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup all-purpose flour
4 to 5 large eggs
6 oz extra-sharp Cheddar (preferably yellow), finely grated (1 1/2 cups)
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh dill
Special Equipment
parchment paper (optional); a pastry bag fitted with 1/2-inch plain tip (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375°F.
  • Bring water to a boil with butter and salt in a 3-quart heavy saucepan over high heat, then reduce heat to moderate. Add flour all at once and cook, stirring vigorously with a wooden spoon, until mixture pulls away from side of pan, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and cool slightly, about 3 minutes, then add 4 eggs 1 at a time, beating well after each addition (batter will appear to separate but will then become smooth). Mixture should be glossy and just stiff enough to hold soft peaks and fall softly from a spoon. If batter is too stiff, beat remaining egg in a small bowl and add to batter 1 teaspoon at a time, beating and then testing batter until it reaches proper consistency. Stir in cheese and dill.
  • Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment or lightly butter sheets. Fill pastry bag with batter and pipe 15 (1-inch-diameter) mounds (or spoon level tablespoons) 1 inch apart onto each sheet. Bake in upper and lower thirds of oven, switching position of sheets halfway through baking, until puffed, golden, and crisp, about 30 minutes total. Make more puffs in same manner. Serve warm.
