How to Make Pecan Cheese Biscuits

  1. Combine 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese, and 1/2 cup shredded Parmesan cheese in a food processor. Process until smooth.
  2. Sift 3 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper directly into the food processor. Process until the mixture forms a ball.
  3. Add 1/2 cup chopped pecans and pulse until just combined.
  4. The mixture will be very soft. This is normal.
  5. Divide the dough into 3 equal parts. Place each on a piece of wax paper.
  6. Fold the paper over the mixture and roll into logs about 1 inch in diameter.
  7. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or until thoroughly chilled.
  8. (Optional) Roll the chilled dough into a more regular round shape.
  9. Unwrap the logs immediately before baking and slice into 1/4-inch thick rounds.
  10. Place rounds 1/2 inch apart on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake in a preheated 350°F (175°C) oven until light golden brown, about 15-20 minutes.
  11. Cool on a wire rack. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
