Ingredients 

  • 481 gm All Purpose Flour
  • 1 ½ tsp Baking Powder
  • 1 ½ tsp Sugar
  • ¾ tsp Salt
  • 87 gm Margarine room temperature
  • 168 gm Butter cold
  • 356 gm Nacho Cheese Blend shredded
  • 346 ml Whole Milk
  • 2 tsp Garlic minced
  • 2 tsp Parsley chopped

Instructions

  • Measure and separate all ingredients. Cut the garlic and the parsley according to the description above and put them aside.
  • In a ½ size 2-inch-deep production pan, mix the flour, baking powder, sugar and salt in a food processor or with a pastry cutter. Add the margarine and pulse until combined, or mix using your hands. Then, separate around 30% of the butter to use later. Add the remaining butter and pulse 4 or 5 times or until the butter is in pea-size pieces.
  • Combine the cheese and pulse 2 or 3 times, or mix well with your hands. Pour the milk gradually and pulse until the mixture is moistened, forming a shaggy dough. If the dough is too wet, pour some flour (approximately 2 tbsp).
  • Gently knead until the dough comes together.
  • Make balls using the yellow scoop (size #20, 2 1/8 inches) and place them 2 inches apart in a pan with a baking sheet.
  • Make garlic butter by melting the butter separately and mixing it with garlic and parsley. Brush the biscuits with the garlic butter.
  • Cover with cling film and aluminum foil. Place in Multigen for 55 minutes at 130˚C.
  • Bulk: remove from Multigen and serve as one biscuit for portion.
    Cold Plating: Allow it to cool and plate. Place on the hot side of the tray to retherm for 55 minutes prior to service.
  • Food Accompany: Fruit, cereal or yogurt on the breakfast side or with a drink as a snack option.
