Old Virginia Cheddar Biscuits

How to make Old Virginia Cheddar Biscuits Recipe - Biscuits made rich with Cheddar cheese were offered because they were easier to make than the laborious beaten biscuits.

Makes about 36

Ingredients:
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup (2/3 stick) firm butter
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded Cheddar cheese

Method:
Preheat oven to 350F (175C). In a medium-sized bowl, combine flour and salt. Using a pastry blender or 2 knives, cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Blend in cheese. Mix until dough holds together in a ball. On a lightly floured surface, roll out dough to about 1/2 inch thick. Cut with the tiniest biscuit cutter you have, even as small as 1 inch.

Prick tops with a fork. Place on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake 12 to 15 minutes or until biscuits are a rich Cheddar color but not browned. Cool and store in an airtight container.
