2 tablespoons snipped chives

Preheat oven to 425 degree F. In a medium mixing bowl stir together flour and baking soda. With a pastry blender or two knives cut in butter or margarine until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in Monterey Jack cheese with jalapeno peppers, snipped chives, and ground red pepper. Make a well in center. Add the buttermilk all at once, stir until moistened.

Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Quickly knead dough by gently folding and pressing dough 10 to 12 strokes or until nearly smooth. Pat or lightly roll dough to 1/2-inch thickness. Cut dough with a floured 2-1/2-inch biscuit cutter. Place biscuits 1 inch apart on a lightly greased baking sheet. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes or until golden. Remove biscuits from baking sheet and serve hot. Makes 10 to 12 biscuits.
