Louisiana Cheddar Biscuit Ya Ya
2 cups self-rising sifted flour
1/4 cup shortening
1/3 cup grated cheddar cheese
1/4 teaspoon Chef Paul Prudhomme's Vegetable Magic Seasoning
3/4 cup milk
.
Heat oven to 450 degrees. In a large bowl add flour, cheese and seasoning,
mix well. Cut shortening into dry ingredients until mixture resembles coarse
crumbs. With a fork, stir in enough milk to form a soft dough or until dough
pulls away from the sides of the bowl.
Turn dough onto lightly floured board or pastry cloth; knead just until
smooth. Roll dough to 1/2 inch thickness; cut with floured 2-inch round
cutter (a correct sized juice glass will do in a pinch).
Place biscuits, just touching each other on an un-greased baking sheet (a
little cooking spray wouldn't hurt, however). Bake at 450 degrees for 10-12
minutes or until golden brown.
Makes 12-14 biscuits.
Serves: 6
