Quick Biscuits for Two

I wanted to freshen up  leftover soup for dinner, so I made Quick Biscuits for Two. I added a bit of cheddar - this is optional.

Ingredients:

• 110 grams all purpose flour (this is a scant cup)
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon white sugar
• 1/4 teaspoon white salt
• 2 tablespoons butter, cut up a bit into smaller bits
• 3.5 ounces milk (or 1/4 cup milk, + spoonful of Greek Yogurt, and more milk to make 3.5 ounces)
• option - 1 ounce cheddar, shredded

   

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 450. Place silpat sheet on cookie sheet.
2. Whirr dry ingredients + butter chunks together in a food processor.
3. Pulse in milk in short burts, until dough starts to form clumps the size of a hazel nut.
4. Dump dough onto lightly floured surface.
5. Form dough into a rectangle
   (Cover with 1/2 or so of cheese if using)
6. Fold dough over and press out a couple of times
   (Cover with rest of cheese if using)
7. Fold dough over and press out a couple of times
8. Quarter with a sharp knife, place on cookie sheet.
9. Bake for about 10 minutes - should puff up, and be golden brown on edges and bottom.

Carole's Notes:

These are not round, but I liked them anyway.
