How to Make Bacon Biscuits

  1. Remove rind from 4 slices bacon. Fry until golden brown on both sides over medium heat. Chop finely and set aside.
  2. In a mixing bowl, beat 1/2 cup (1 stick) softened butter until creamy. Add 1 large egg yolk and mix well.
  3. Stir in 1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese (or your favorite cheese).
  4. Gradually add 2 cups all-purpose flour and 1 teaspoon salt, mixing until a firm dough forms.
  5. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  6. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to 1/8 inch thickness.
  7. Use a 1 1/2 inch fluted cutter to cut out biscuit rounds.
  8. Place rounds on a greased baking sheet. Sprinkle with the cooked bacon and 1/4 cup extra grated cheese.
  9. Bake in a preheated moderate oven (375°F or 190°C) for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown.
  10. Let the biscuits cool slightly on a wire rack before serving.
