Food Friday: Quick and Easy Biscuits

The idea of quick and easy biscuits is one I can buy into since biscuits are a nice treat every so once in a while.  These really are quick and so easy.  And they come out pretty well in just a few minutes.

These are a variation on King Arthur Flour's Never Fail Biscuits.

Quick and Easy Cheese Biscuits

1 1/2 cups self-rising flour
3/4 cup heavy whipping cream, or a little more
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup grated sharp or extra sharp cheddar cheese

Pre-heat oven to 450 degrees F.

In bowl, stir flour, salt, cheese, and cream together until it holds together well. If it does not glob together to your satisfaction, add another bit of cream, one tablespoon at a time, stirring after each addition.

Use a portion scoop to divide into biscuits or just use a solid spoon.  Probably a tennis-ball sized plop of dough should be placed on a parchment-paper-lined pan.  With your hand, flatten slightly then bake for 10-15 minutes.  Check at 10 minutes, then every 2-3 minutes until the biscuits are golden brown.

We liked them.  They make a nice foundation for Eggs Goldenrod.
