Spiced Eggnog Biscuits with Cranberries
 
Ingredients
  • 2 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ tsp nutmeg
  • ½ tsp cinnamon
  • ½ tsp ground cardamon
  • 1 stick very cold butter, cut into small cubes
  • ½ cup dried cranberries
  • ¾ cup eggnog
Instructions
  1. Combine the flour, baking powder, spices and salt in a medium bowl. Whisk to combine. Incorporate the butter into the flour with your hands, a mixer or a pastry blender. Mix in the cranberries and raisins. Form a well in the center and pour in the eggnog. Using a wooden spoon slowly mix well just until combined. Flour your work surface and turn out the dough. Form it into a rough rectangle with your hands. Flour the top surface lightly, then roll it to a thickness of about ½ inch thick. Fold it into thirds, then roll it again and fold in thirds. Roll it to about ½- to ¾-inch thick then use a 2½-inch biscuit cutter to cut rounds from the dough.
  2. Place the rounds on a baking sheet. If you prefer crisp edges, keep them separated. If you prefer tender edges, arrange them on the sheet so the edges touch.
  3. Bake at 400 degrees until the biscuits are lightly browned, 12-15 minutes.
