Let's Make It
1
Heat oven to 450°F.
2
Mix first 4 ingredients in large bowl until well blended. Cut in shortening with pastry blender or 2 knives or until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Mix sour cream and milk. Add to flour mixture; stir with fork just until mixture forms soft dough. (Do not overmix.)
3
Knead on lightly floured baking sheet 10 times or until smooth. Pat or roll out dough to 12x8-inch rectangle. Cut into 12 (4x2-inch) rectangles with pizza wheel. Place 1 cheese cube about 3/4 inch from edge of 1 short side of each rectangle. Brush edges of dough with water; fold dough over cheese to form 2-inch square. Firmly pinch edges of dough together to seal. Arrange evenly on baking sheet.

Kitchen Tips
Tip 1
How to Reheat Biscuits
Wrap biscuits in foil. Bake in 350ºF oven 10 to 15 min. or until heated through.
Tip 2
Special Extra
For a flavor twist, add 1/4 tsp. ground red pepper (cayenne), and/or 2 chopped green onions to the flour mixture before adding the sour cream mixture.
Tip 3
Food Facts
Humidity and measuring accuracy can affect the quality of biscuits. If the dough is dry, add up to 1 additional Tbsp. milk to dough before kneading as directed. Also, flour the work surface with the least amount of flour possible to prevent the dough from sticking to the surface.
