Cheese Biscuits - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1/2 c. unsalted butter, at room temperature
2 c. shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
1 c. all-purpose flour
1/4 tsp. cayenne or to taste

Preparation

Using hands or the back of a spoon, cream together the butter and cheese.
Add flour and mix well (the mixture should resemble coarse meal).
Add cayenne and mix on a lightly floured board. Form mixture into two long thin rolls, 1 to 1 1/2-inches in diameter.
Wrap each in plastic wrap and refrigerate until firm (about 1 to 2 hours).
Preheat oven to 350\u00b0; cut rolls into 1/4-inch slices and arrange on ungreased baking sheets.
Bake 5 to 10 minutes until the biscuits are brown around the edges and dry in the middle.
