I made this recipe up one Sunday to accompany a Lemon and Thyme Roasted Chicken. There was a moment of silence when my husband and I bit into them for the first time. Oh my yum.

yield
5 large fluffy, succelent biscuits
Ingredients
- 2 cups bread flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1/2 cup butter
- 1/4 cup whole milk ricotta cheese
- 1/2 cup extra sharp white cheddar cheese (oh heck yes)
- 1/2 cup milk ( take it to a whole new level with buttermilk, if you have any)
How To Make now that's a biscuit!
-
Step 1Put flour, salt, and baking powder in a bowl.
-
Step 2Cube cold butter.
-
Step 3Cut butter into flour with pastry cutter, or food processor until the butter is the size of a pea.
-
Step 4Add ricotta and cheddar cheese. Cut into mixture.
-
Step 5Make a well and slowly add milk. Mix gently with a spatula, or my favorite tool, my hand. If dough is too wet, add more flour. If the dough is too dry...add more milk!
-
Step 6Turn dough onto floured surface and shape into a circle. I like thick biscuits, so I leave my dough about 1 inch thick. Use a biscuit cutter to cut out biscuits and place in a lightly oiled/buttered cast iron skillet. Re-shape dough and keep cutting out biscuits until you have used all of the dough.
-
Step 7Lightly spray the tops with olive oil. Place in a 425 degree over for 15-20 minutes or until biscuits are golden brown.
