Savoury Cheese Biscuits

Cheese Biscuits

200 grams grated cheddar cheese
2 cups plain flour
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
150 grams butter
2 egg yolks

Preheat the oven to 180 degrees celsius and prepare a biscuit tray.

Sift the dry ingredients into a large bowl. Add the cheese, then chop the butter into cubes and rub into the mixture until it is like bread crumbs. The mixture should be crumbly.

Add the egg yolks and mix until it everything comes together into a dough that is thick enough to be rolled. If it seems too dry or crumbly add a little milk and if it is too wet add a little more flour.

Sprinkle flour on a clean surface and roll the dough out, to about 5 mm thick. Cut it into rectangles or use a cookie cutter to make shapes.

Place biscuits on a tray and bake each batch for 15 minutes.
