Spicy Cheese Biscuits
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/4 teaspoons baking powder
- 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons sugar
- 3/4 teaspoon sweet smoked paprika, plus more for dusting
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, cold, cut into pieces
- 6 ounces manchego cheese, finely grated (about 1 cup)
- 1 1/2 cups heavy cream
- Preheat the oven to 375F.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper; set aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, sugar, and paprika.
- Using a pastry blender, cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse meal with a few larger clumps remaining.
- Stir in the cheese with a fork.
- Add the cream; using a rubber spatula, stir until the dough just comes together.
- The dough will be slightly sticky; do not overmix.
- Using a 1/2-cup measure, scoop mounds of dough about 1 1/2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet.
- Lightly dust with paprika.
- Bake, rotating the sheet halfway through, until golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes.
- Slide parchment and biscuits onto a wire rack to cool.
- Serve warm or at room temperature.
