Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese For an extra sharp flavor, consider using extra-sharp cheddar.
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened Make sure your butter is softened but not melting for better dough consistency.
  • 2 cups self-rising flour

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, mix the softened butter and shredded cheddar cheese together until they are well combined.
  3. Slowly add the self-rising flour to the mixture to form a soft dough.
  4. Transfer the dough into a piping bag fitted with a large star tip, or you can roll small portions into ropes by hand.
  5. Pipe 4 to 5-inch strips onto the prepared baking sheets, making sure to leave some space between them.
Baking
  1. Bake in the preheated oven for 12 to 15 minutes, or until they are puffed, lightly browned, and crisp around the edges.
  2. Allow them to cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet before transferring them to a rack to cool completely.

Notes

These cheese biscuits make a fantastic appetizer when served warm. Consider pairing them with your favorite dipping sauce, like ranch or marinara. For added flavor, mix in herbs like rosemary or thyme or chopped jalapeños. If you have unused dough, refrigerate it for up to two days before using it to make biscuits.
