Cheesy Biscuit Sticks

For lack of a better name, I am calling these little guys Biscuit Sticks! :) They are made with my Baking Mix and are just the right size for a little snack. Jerry and his mom have been gobbling them up almost as fast as I make them! When I made the first batch, I grated the cheese with the large holes on the grater but because I used my Queso Blanco goat cheese, which doesn't melt very well, the cheese was kinda chewy in the biscuits. With this batch, I used the smaller holes on the grater and I was much more pleased with the outcome. :) Grated cheddar or parmesan cheese would also be yummy!

2 cups Baking Mix
1/4 cup cold butter cut into small pieces

1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
3/4 cup grated cheese
3/4 cup buttermilk

Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Place Baking Mix, butter and cayenne pepper in a bowl and cut in butter.

 By the way, can anyone tell me why my pictures sometimes end up rotated when I upload them?!?








Stir in grated cheese. Make a well in the center and add the buttermilk all at once.

Stir together until a soft dough forms. Turn dough out onto a well floured surface. Dust the top with additional flour. Knead gently 8-10 times.

Pat dough into a rectangle about 12 x 8 inches and about 1/2-inch thick. Cut into sticks.

Place on an ungreased baking sheet and bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until golden brown.

Sample while still warm....repeat as necessary! :)
