Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoons Baking powder
• 1 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Cayenne pepper
• 0.5 cups Unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
• 1 cups Shredded sharp cheddar cheese
• 0.25 cups Chopped green chilies (canned, drained)
• 0.75 cups Whole milk
• 1 large Egg

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, and cayenne pepper.

Step 3

Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry mixture. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, work the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

Gently fold in the shredded cheddar cheese and green chilies, ensuring even distribution.

Step 5

In a small bowl, whisk together the milk and egg. Pour this mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring just until a soft dough forms. Do not overmix.

Step 6

Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Pat or roll the dough to about 1-inch thick.

Step 7

Using a 2.5-inch biscuit cutter, cut out biscuits and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Gather the scraps, reshape, and cut more biscuits until all the dough is used.

Step 8

Bake the biscuits in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until they are golden brown and puffed up.

Step 9

Remove the biscuits from the oven and transfer them to a wire rack to cool slightly before serving.

Step 10

Enjoy warm with a dab of butter or your favorite toppings!
