Belgian ones are covered with creamy Belgian chocolate. It could be white chocolate, milk chocolate or dark chocolate. You will find makers of these appetizing products around the globe.

Chocolate biscuit cakes are admittedly made and tasty. They can also be made without baking and with minimal heating.

How to Make Cheese Biscuits

In the new South each morning brings the roosters wake up call. This is shortly followed by the thunder of millions of cans of store bought biscuits slamming onto counter tops to open them. I won't dignify the result of that labor with the name biscuit because while it may be bread, a good biscuit it isn't.

This article will show you just how easy it is to make delicious cheese biscuits for breakfast. The process requires a little bit of work and a little bit of paying attention to details so that the result makes a breakfast your family will love.

Breakfast Pizza

The Ingredients:

3 cups all purpose flour sifted 1 stick butter ( 4 oz.) (keep it cold) 3 T baking powder 1 1/2 tsp salt 1 tsp baking powder approximately 1 cup buttermilk ( not low fat) 1/2 cup finely shredded cheddar cheese 2 T melted butter
The preparation:

First turn on your oven to 450F to preheat. In a large bowl mix dry ingredients with a whisk. Using a pastry cutter blend the stick of butter into the flour thoroughly. When you are finished it should have a slightly mealy consistency. It is very important that the butter be very cold as this will produce light and flaky biscuits. A good rule of thumb is to cut the butter into 1/2 inch dices and place in freezer while you are getting everything else together.

After the butter is added the mix in the finely grated cheese and stir in the buttermilk to form the dough. Turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and gently form into a disc. Don't over work the dough or it will be tough. Roll the dough out to around 1/2 inch thickness and cut biscuits with a large cookie cutter. I use a pineapple can with both top and bottom removed to make nice big biscuits.

Make sure when cutting out the biscuits not to turn the cutter. If you do it will prevent the biscuits from rising as well. Place the biscuits on baking sheet and bake from 12-15 minutes watching them closely after 10 minutes because no two ovens cook alike.

After the biscuits are golden brown remove from oven and brush with melted butter. Now you are ready to serve your family a delicious breakfast!

A few variations:

For a delicious south of the border taste just add four strips of bacon finely crumbled and substitute pepper jack cheese for the cheddar. These are especially good served with chili or beef stew for a hearty cold weather meal.

For a sweet taste, remove the biscuits from the oven after 10 minutes and brush with melted butter. Then sprinkle cinnamon sugar on top and return to the oven for 3-5 more minutes. Your kids will love these!

Another good use for cheese biscuits is to serve them as the topping on chicken pot pie.

I hope you enjoy these recipes as much as we do at my house and God Bless Y'all.

Baking With Biscuits

Making your own biscuits from scratch is a fun and easy process and you can then enjoy them alone or for complementing a number of interesting dishes to create an entire, rather filling meal.

In the country of England, biscuit is the word used to describe cookie but in most other parts of the world, biscuits are circular shaped, flaky breads that usually feature a rich buttery taste. Biscuits can take the place of sliced bread or rolls and they can be topped with a wide variety of tasty ingredients.

Biscuits are typically about an inch or two thick and approximately two to four inches around in diameter. Made from a biscuit mix, all purpose flour, self rising flour, or wheat flour and leavened with baking powder, biscuits can be perfect as a side dish for lunch or dinner when topped with gravy or sauce. In addition, for breakfast or brunch, top biscuits with butter, jams, jellies, or marmalade.

When it comes to making biscuits, the dry ingredients should be stirred well to mix thoroughly and if butter is called for in the recipe, it should be used cold. Always handle the dough gently and as little as possible to keep it from toughening up. Stir constantly with a fork while adding liquid ingredients slowly.

You will know the biscuit dough is ready when it is no longer sticking to the sides of the mixing bowl. Sprinkle flour on a flat surface and gently turn the dough over to coat. Then, knead a few times quickly and lightly to smooth the dough out.

If you have a biscuit cutter, dip it in flour before using it otherwise do the same with a sharp knife before cutting the dough into circular shapes. Cut the biscuits out close together to avoid wasting any of the dough. If you want your biscuits to have a soft crust they should be placed on the baking sheet close together, but if you want a crispier biscuit they should be about an inch apart to bake.

For golden brown biscuits, brush them with butter before baking and remove them from the oven when both the tops and bottoms are a rich brown color. You can use leftover biscuits for feeding the birds, for making various dishes, or reheat the next day wrapped in aluminum foil in a warm oven for about 10 minutes.
