- 1 teaspoon Granulated Sugar
- ½ Teaspoon Baking Soda
- 2 Teaspoons Baking Powder
- ¾ Teaspoon Salt
- 1 ¼ Cups Finely Shredded Cheddar Cheese
- ¼ Cup Fresh Chives Diced
Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, and salt. Stir in cheese and chives.
- Cut in butter with a pastry cutter or 2 forks. Slowly stir in buttermilk. Dough is ready when it begins to pull away from the sides of the bowl. Do not over mix. You want the dough to be stiff.

- Work the dough into a square that is about 1 ½ in. thick. Use a round cookie cutter cut as many biscuits as you can.

- Sprinkle with more finely sliced fresh chives to garnish if desired.
