    List of Ingredients





    2 cups all purpose flour
    2 teaspoons baking powder
    1 teaspoon sugar
    1/2 teaspoon baking soda
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
    1/4 cup (1/2 stick) chilled butter, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
    1/4 cup to 1/2 cup of freshly chopped chives (can also use chopped green onions)
    1 5-ounce log soft fresh goat cheese, crumbled
    1 cup buttermilk (plus an extra tablespoon for finish)

    Method
    1 Preheat oven to 400°F. Line 2 heavy baking sheets with silpat or parchment paper.



    2 Whisk flour, baking powder, sugar, baking soda, salt and pepper in a large bowl. Using fingertips, rub butter into dry ingredients until coarse meal forms. Stir in the chives. Add cheese and buttermilk; stir with fork just until a sticky dough forms (bits of cheese will be visible in dough).




    3 Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently 8 times with floured hands. Do not over-knead! Form into a round, about 3/4-inch to an inch thick. Cut the round into 8 wedges. Use a pastry brush to brush on some extra buttermilk over the surface of the wedges.



    4 Arrange wedges about 1/2 inch apart on an ungreased large baking sheet and bake in middle of oven until golden brown, about 20 minutes. Cool on a rack.

    Makes 8 large biscuits. Best eaten just baked and warm, with a little butter.
