Ingredients:
- 2 1/4 cups biscuit mix
- 1/2 teaspoon dill weed
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne
- 1/8 cup grated cheddar cheese
- 4 tablespoons water
Instructions:
-
Prepare Ingredients:
- Start by preheating your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Gather all your ingredients to ensure a smooth cooking process.
-
-
Combine Dry Ingredients:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the biscuit mix, dill weed, cayenne, and grated cheddar cheese. Mix well until all the dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
-
Add Water and Mix:
- Pour the water into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Using a spatula or your hands, gently mix the ingredients until they come together into a dough. Be careful not to overmix; a light touch is key to tender biscuits.
-
Knead Lightly:
- Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface. Knead the dough gently 4 or 5 times to ensure it’s well combined. Avoid excessive kneading, as it can result in tough biscuits.
-
Shape the Biscuits:
- Pat the dough down to a thickness of about 1/2 inch. Using a small round cutter (approximately 1 to 1 1/2 inches in diameter), cut out circles of dough. A champagne flute can also work well for this purpose.
-
Bake:
- Place the cut-out biscuits on a lightly greased baking sheet or line it with parchment paper for easy cleanup. Ensure they are evenly spaced to allow for expansion.
- Transfer the baking sheet to the preheated oven and bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and cooked through.
-
Serve and Enjoy:
- Once baked to perfection, remove the biscuits from the oven and let them cool slightly on a wire rack. Serve them warm or at room temperature.
- These tiny appetizer biscuits are incredibly versatile. Slice them in half and fill them with your favorite ingredients, such as ham spread, smoked salmon, or savory sausage. Get creative and let your imagination run wild!
