Biscuits - Cheddar-Sausage Biscuits
5 tsp baking powder
1 1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 cup butter frozen and grated
1 lb breakfast sausage cooked, crumbled and cooled
2 cups shredded cheddar or colby-jack cheese
2 Tbsp fresh chives
1 cup buttermilk (not fat free)
2 Tbsp melted butter or heavy cream to brush tops
Preheat oven to 450°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside. In a large mixing bowl, use a whisk to sift together flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda. Add grated butter, mix until evenly distributed. To the bowl add sausage, cheese and chives, mix well. Make a well in the center adding buttermilk. Mix thoroughly. Turn out onto a lightly floured non-stick surface. Turn a couple of times to bring together and lightly coat with flour. Press into roughly a 9 x 9 inch square around 1-inch thick. Use a sharp knife dipped in flour to cut into 12 even squares. Place squares side by side on baking sheet. Brush tops with melted butter or cream. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until golden and puffed. Serve immediately brushed with additional butter, if desired.
