CHEDDAR PENNIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325.
• In a bowl, mix the ingredients together one at a time IN ORDER. See my explination in the description. When you are finished you should have a workable dough.
• Roll the dough into lengths about an inch thick. Cut 1/4" sections and set them out on a greased baking sheet. Grease the bottom of a cup and smush them just a little bit so they will smooth out. They can be placed as close together as needed, as long as they aren't touching.
• Bake for 20-25 minutes. I eat them right off the baking sheet, the longer they go out of the oven the more bland they become.

ALMOST-FAMOUS CHEDDAR BISCUITS

Steps:

• Position a rack in the upper third of the oven and preheat to 425 degrees. Lightly mist a large baking sheet with cooking spray.
• Make the biscuits: Pulse the flour, baking powder, sugar and salt in a food processor. Add the shortening and pulse until combined. Add the butter; pulse 4 or 5 times, or until the butter is in pea-size pieces. Add the cheese and pulse 2 or 3 times. Pour in the milk and pulse just until the mixture is moistened and forms a shaggy dough. Turn out onto a clean surface and gently knead until the dough comes together. Do not overwork the dough or the biscuits will be tough.
• Drop the dough onto the baking sheet in scant 1/4-cup portions, 2 inches apart, and bake until golden, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the garlic butter: Melt the butter with the garlic in a small saucepan over medium heat; cook for 1 minute. Remove from the heat and stir in the parsley. Brush the biscuits with the garlic butter and serve warm.

CHEDDAR PENNIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Lightly grease a large cookie sheet.
• In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, salt and cayenne pepper. Stir in the Cheddar cheese and melted butter to form a firm dough. Roll pieces of dough into ropes as big around as a penny. Slice into 1/4 inch slices. If dough is too soft, it can be chilled until firm. Place slices onto the prepared cookie sheet so they are 1 inch apart.
• Bake for 20 to 25 minutes in the preheated oven, until the bottoms of the pennies are lightly toasted and the tops are firm. Allow to cool completely before serving. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.
