Cheddar Chive and Jalapeño Biscuits

Do you hear that?  That’s me patting myself on the back.  I have conquered biscuits.

I know, I know my blog name does include bake. I began Sweet Life as a way to practice my baking skills, learn new techniques and practice..practice.  The thing is I might have subconsciously slid biscuits to the back end of my baking practice.

Have I made them before? Yes.

Did they resemble hockey pucks and taste like saw dust? Yes. Yes. and Yes.

I live in fear of my family requesting biscuits.  So lame.

 

This weekend as I browsed Joy’s new cookbook my eyes scanned over Jalapeno biscuits. Dang.

I flipped past the recipe 3 times and kept on coming back to them. Dang.

When I read her recipe I thought you know I can do this.  The steps were simple, the ingredients were right up my alley (jalapeno-swoon) and she states “the mixture will be shaggy,” okay I can do shaggy.

So I did.  And guess what? They were light, fluffy, bursting with jalapeno flavor.  No hockey puck, no saw dust.

To say I was excited is putting it mildly.  Picture a happy dance, because it so happened.

 

 

Hello biscuits lovers these babies are loaded with jalapeno studded, cheddar cheese and chives.

Brushed with buttermilk and dusted with salt.

Everything needed for a hearty breakfast. Serve alongside eggs a steamy cup of coffee and you set.

Enjoy!

    I agree, these things are delicious. I was pretty darn proud of myself for making a light fluffy biscuit also. Loved this recipe. And the best part? I’ve got a large baggie of them in the freezer. They’re great for unthawing a couple for a quick breakfast.

    These look amazing! I gave biscuits a try a few months ago and was surprised that they weren’t as tough as I thought they’d be, perhaps I’ll have to give these a whirl esp since I have some jalapenos that need using!

    “Jalapeno…swoon!” I completely agree. I knew before reading your post that I would be making these! I’m not much of a baker either (and definitely not biscuits) but I’m adding these to my must-make PIN board! YAY!
