2 c Unbleached flour
1 ts Mustard; dry
1 ts Paprika
1/4 ts Baking powder
1 c Butter; room temperature
10 oz Cheddar; sharp, grated
1 ts Worcestershire sauce
Combine the flour, dry mustard, paprika and baking powder in a medium
bowl. Beat the butter, either by hand or with an electric mixer at
medium speed, until light and fluffy. Slowly beat in the cheddar
cheese and Worcestershire sauce. Gradually add the flour mixture,
stirring with a rk, until well blended. On a lightly floured
surface, shape the dough into a long roll about 1 3/4-inches in
diameter. Wrap in plastic wrap or foil. Place on a platter and
refrigerate for at least 2 hours, better overnight. Preheat the oven
to 325 degrees F. Slice the dough about 1/3 inch thick. With your
hands, roll each slice into a ball. Flatten slightly and place on an
ungreased baking sheet about 2 inches apart. Bake 8 minutes in the
preheated oven. Biscuits will only brown slightly on the bottom.
