Recipe Information

Total Time:
Yield:
8 servings

Ingredients

4 large eggs

Nonstick cooking spray

3 cups all-purpose flour

1 tablespoon sugar

1 tablespoon baking powder

1 teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon baking soda

½ cup cold butter, cut up

1 cup shredded (4 ounces) cheddar cheese

¼ cup chopped fresh chives

¾ cup milk

½ cup sour cream

2 tablespoons melted butter, optional

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 475°F.
  2. Fill a 3-quart saucepan half full of water. Bring water to simmering. Gently add eggs and simmer for 6 minutes for yolks that are softly set, adjusting heat to maintain a gentle simmer. Remove eggs and let cool. Peel eggs and set aside.
  3. Meanwhile, spray a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray. In a large bowl, stir together flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and baking soda. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in cheese and chives.
  4. In a small bowl, combine milk and sour cream. Stir into flour mixture until moistened. Shape dough into a ball; divide into eight portions. Shape each portion into a ½-inch-thick oval.
  5. Place eggs on four dough portions; top with remaining dough portions, pinching to seal edges. Place on prepared baking sheet. Bake for 5 minutes.
  6. Reduce oven temperature to 400°F. Bake 12 minutes more or until golden. If desired, brush with melted butter. Serve warm. Store leftover biscuits in the refrigerator.
