Recipe Introduction


Yield: 1 1/2 dozen biscuits


List of Ingredients




2 c all-purpose flour
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp coarsely ground black pepper
2 tbsp chilled margarine, cut into small pieces
3/4 c (3 oz.) shredded extra-sharp cheddar cheese
3/4 c skim milk
vegetable cooking spray
1 egg white, lightly beaten

Recipe



Combine flour, baking powder, salt and 1/4 tsp pepper in bowl; cut in margarine with pastry blender or 2 knives until mixture resembles coarse meal.

Add cheese; toss well.

Add milk, stirring just until dry ingredients are moistened.
Turn dough out onto a well-floured surface and knead 4 or 5 times.

Roll dough to 1/2-inch thickness; cut with 2-inch decorative cookie cutter.

Place biscuits 1 inch apart on baking sheets coated with cooking spray, and brush with egg white; sprinkle with remaining pepper.

Bake at 425F for 15 minutes or until lightly browned.
