Cheese Biscuits

Description

There must be dozens of recipes for this type of appetizer. This recipe is from Mrs. Arch Taylor of Oxford, NC and was published in a cookbook put out by the Oxford Women's Club in 1949. Be sure to use freshly grated SHARP cheddar cheese! You could also add a little cayenne pepper if you like things on the spicy side.

Cream the butter and the cheese. Add the flour and the salt. Work the mixture together lightly. Let dough rest for about 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
