Cheesy Drop Biscuits

January 12, 2015

I had a light bulb moment the other day. My mom invited me and the boys over for soup but said "I don't have any bread to go with it, though." It was too stinkin' cold to go to the grocery store for bread, so I started to think how I could remedy this situation (I mean, soup without bread? That's like Lucy without Ricky or Ozzie without Harriet!) It came to me in a flash: drop biscuits! I mixed up a batch in one bowl (amen!) and carted it over to my mom's to bake!

1 c. all purpose flour
1 1/4 c. white whole wheat flour
2 t. sugar
3/4 t. baking soda
1 t. salt
6 T. cold unsalted butter, but into 1/2" chunks
6 oz. grated cheese (whatever you have on hand!)
1 T. dried chives (if you have fresh on hand great! You could also cut up a couple of green onions if you want.)
1 c. buttermilk (I didn't have buttermilk so I mixed 1 T. white vinegar with 1 c. 1% milk and subbed that in for the buttermilk)

Preheat the oven to 450. In a large bowl whisk together the flours, sugar, baking soda and salt. Add the butter and blend with your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Add the cheddar, chives...
