Ingredients
  • 2 cups all purpose flour

  • 1 stick butter, cold
  • 1 cup cold buttermilk
  • ⅓ cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 2 strips bacon, torn into small pieces

Directions:
  1. Preheat the oven to 375F. Line a baking sheet with either parchment paper or with a silicone baking mat.

  5. Use a ΒΌ measuring cup to scoop each serving of dough. Place the dough onto the prepared baking sheet.
