Cheese Biscuits Recipe

I came across this recipe in an old handwritten cookbook in my collection. I wasn't sure I would like it, but since I was making soup, I thought I would give it a try.

I enjoyed it so much that I actually made it twice. It's such a versatile recipe that you can serve it with any soup, instead of croutons.

My second attempt at this recipe was to serve it for hors d'oeuvres. I rolled out to 20 inches, and cut it into thin round. I topped some of the crackers with slices of fresh jalapeño peppers before baking, and served those crackers with guacamole. It is an easy recipe and makes a nice food gift for the holidays.
