Biskuit Krim Keju

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 ¾ cups all-purpose flour, 1 ½ tablespoons baking powder, and 1 teaspoon salt.
3. Using a cheese grater, grate the ¼ cup unsalted butter,. Dice the cold 4 ounces cream cheese, into small cubes.
4. Add the grated butter and diced cream cheese to the flour mixture. Using a pastry cutter or the back of a fork, cut the butter and cream cheese into the flour mixture.
5. When the butter and cream cheese have been incorporated, add in 1 cup buttermilk, and keep mixing the dough with the pastry cutter until a shaggy dough forms.
6. Lightly flour a work surface and dump the dough out onto it. Work the dough with your hands until it comes together. Don't overwork the dough, or your biscuits will be tough.
7. Roll the dough out into a 1-inch thick slab. Using a cookie cutter or cup with about a 3-inch diameter cut the biscuits out of the slab. Roll the dough out again and continue the process until all the dough is used.
8. Place the biscuits spaced 1 inch apart on the parchment-lined baking sheet.
9. Brush the biscuits with melted butter and bake for 15-20 minutes until they are lightly golden brown on the top and bottom.
