Source of Recipe

from Senator Ernest F. Hollings


Recipe Introduction

NOTE: Uncooked biscuits may be frozen by placing entire cookie sheet in freezer. Remove biscuits to plastic bag when hard and store in freezer until ready to use. Thaw on cookie sheet before baking.

List of Ingredients

12 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 cup butter, softened
1-1/2 cups self-rising flour



Recipe

Combine above ingredients by hand or in food processor. Divide mixture into 1/2-cup portions and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. Roll out one portion at a time to approximately 1/8 inch thickness (flour work surface and rolling pin to prevent sticking). Cut out bite-size biscuits (1 to 1-1/4 inch diameter) and place on ungreased cookie sheet 1 inch apart. Bake in 425 degree oven until light brown (10 to 12 minutes).
Makes: four dozen (allow at least 6 per person).
