The recipe combines all-purpose flour with grated cheddar, seasoned salt, paprika, and a hint of chili flakes for a savory kick, while unsalted butter and cream cheese create a rich, tender dough.

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 8- oz. block cheddar cheese grated
  • ½ tsp. seasoned salt or kosher salt
  • ¼ tsp. paprika
  • ½ tsp. chili flakes optional
  • ¾ cup unsalted butter cut into 1-tablespoon pats
  • 4 oz. cream cheese cut into tablespoons

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 325°. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  • Combine the flour, grated cheese, and spices in the bowl of a stand mixer.
  • Turn the mixer on to medium-low. Slowly add the butter and cream cheese piece by piece and let it mix until a dough forms. If it doesn’t come together, add 1-2 tablespoons of ice water.
  • Shape the dough into small, 1-inch balls and place them on the baking sheet. Use a fork to gently press the balls into little discs. The biscuits don’t spread, so you can place them close together.
  • Bake for 22-25 minutes, until the bottoms just start to turn golden brown.
  • Enjoy warm.

“These bite-sized biscuits are the perfect dinner party appetizer or tailgate snack! Savory, salty, and cheesy, they’re always a crowd-pleaser. You can mix them by hand, but it’s easier and quicker in a stand mixer or food processor. Make them as spicy as you’d like by adding chili flakes or Cajun seasoning.”
