Nicole's chive biscuts

1 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
8 ounces Cake flour
½ ounce Sugar
½ ounce Baking powder
½ teaspoon Salt
4 ounces Sweet butter
¾ cup Heavy cream
½ bunch Fresh chives

Directions

Combine the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in the bowl of a five quart electric mixer (or a suitable mixing bowl if working by hand). Chop the butter into medium sized pieces, about the size of an olive and add to the dry ingredients. Mix with a paddle until the mixture becomes uniform with a texture resembling corn meal.

Add the cream slowly and mix just until the dough comes together. Turn the dough out onto a floured work surface and roll to about 1 inch thick. Fold the dough in thirds back onto itself and roll to 1 inch a second time. Cut into 1 - ½ inch rounds and refrigerate until ready to bake.

When you are ready to bake, preheat the oven to 350 F. and arrange the biscuits on a baking sheet. Brush the tops with cream and bake to golden brown. Pastry Chef Nicole Plue Makes about 18 biscuts Posted to recipelu-digest by "Bunny" <layla696@...> on Mar 21, 1998
