Little Ensworth Biscuits

Make these biscuits little; they are very rich and very savory.

1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened

3 ounces cream cheese, softened

1 cup all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon sugar

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/4 teaspoon salt

Position oven-rack at center of oven. Preheat oven to 475 degrees. Stir butter and cream cheese together until blended. In separate bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add dry mixture to wet mixture. Stir until well blended. Knead gently into smooth dough. On lightly floured surface, pat out to thickness of 1”. Cut into rounds with greased and floured 1-3/8” cutter, pressing cutter straight down without twisting. Place on ungreased baking sheet. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, or until tops are golden-brown. Remove from oven. Serve hot. Makes 16 biscuits.
