Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
- 3/4 cup milk
- 1 cup cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 cup fresh chives, chopped (optional)
How to Make Flaky Biscuits with Creamy Filling
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Add the cold cubed butter to the flour mixture. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, work the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Pour in the milk and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and gently knead it a few times until it comes together. Roll out to about 1-inch thickness.
- Using a round cutter, cut out biscuits and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
- In a separate bowl, mix together the cream cheese, sour cream, garlic powder, black pepper, and chives until smooth.
- Using a small spoon, create a well in the center of each biscuit and fill it with a generous amount of the creamy filling.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving.
Tips for the Best Results
- Ensure your butter is cold for the flakiest biscuits.
- Don’t overwork the dough; a light touch is key to achieving that flaky texture.
- Experiment with different herbs or spices in the creamy filling to match your taste preferences.
Easy Variations
- Replace the cream cheese with goat cheese for a tangy twist.
- Add cooked bacon or shredded chicken to the creamy filling for extra heartiness.
- Swap out chives for fresh herbs like dill or parsley for a different flavor profile.
What to Serve With It
- A fresh fruit salad for a refreshing contrast.
- Scrambled eggs or a frittata for a complete brunch spread.
- A side of crispy bacon or sausage for a heartier meal.
- Your favorite brunch cocktail, like mimosas or Bloody Marys.
