Cheese Biscuits
 

"A tasty biscuit with a flavour kick courtesy of bell pepper and
pimentos."

Servings: 6

2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons white sugar
4 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
1/2 cup shortening
2/3 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
1/4 cup chopped green bell pepper
2 tablespoons chopped pimento peppers
2/3 cup milk

Preheat oven to 425 F (220 C). In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour,
sugar, baking powder, salt, and cream of tartar. Cut in the shortening
with a pastry blender. Add the grated cheese, green bell pepper, and
pimento; mix with a fork. Stir in milk and mix well. Turn the dough out
onto a floured surface and knead 5 times. Roll out to a rectangular shape
and cut into squares using a knife or pizza cutter. Place onto an
ungreased baking sheet. Bake for 15 minutes, or until browned.
