These are awesome little wonders of the culinary world. I love them! They're the perfect savory early morning treat. You could even change it up and have these as a bread course for a meal or split them in half and make a petite sandwich out of them.This recipe is essentially a scone recipe but fancy biscuits sounds better..just sayin!

How To Make fancy biscuits

  • Step 1
    Preheat your oven to 400 degrees
  • Step 2
    Dump your 2 cups of flour in a bowl and add your cubed butter to it. Set your mixer who is on the slowest speed and let them combine until the flour looks course
  • Step 3
    Then add your eggs one at a time
  • Step 4
    Then add your cream
  • Step 5
    When you cube your cheese lightly coat them in flour (this will help them not to go straight to the bottom of the dough
  • Step 6
    Fold the fresh dill and sharp cheddar into your batter
  • Step 7
    After the dill and cheddar are incorporated pour some flour out on a flat surface and pour your dough on top of the flour. Kneed the flour until the dough just comes together. Take a rolling pin and roll them into a square shape. Cut the scones on the diagonal to make eight triangle shaped scones
  • Step 8
    Spray your cookie sheet with some cooking spray. Place each of your scones on the baking sheet and brush some of your egg wash on each one
  • Step 9
    Then sprinkle some salt and pepper on top of each of the scones. Place them in the oven for 12-15 minutes. They should be golden brown and cheese will be oozing out!
