Cheese Biscuits - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    125 g butter, cubed
    125 g grated cheddar cheese
    2 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese
    1 cup plain flour
    2 tablespoons self raising flour
    1 pinch cayenne pepper
    2 teaspoons lemon juice
Preparation
    Place all ingredients on a food processor and blatt for 60 seconds or so or until the mixture forms a ball.
    Alternatively you can use a beater until the mixture resembles crumbs if you don't have a food processor.
    Gently knead the mixture on a floured surface for about 2 minutes. Form the dough into a sausage shape about 3 cms in diameter and wrap in plastic wrap and freeze for 30 minutes. Remove and leave at room temperature for about 5 minutes.
    Preheat the oven to 180. Line two baking trays with baking paper.
    Slice the dough into thin slices about 3mm thick, and place on trays allowing a little room for spreading. Bake the biscuits for 9-10 minutes or until golden. Allow to cool on trays.
    These biscuits are best eaten on the day of baking.
    Optional: Sprinkle a little salt on the biscuits after cutting and before baking.
