These biscuits (or scones if you prefer to make them sound fancy) are definitely easy to make and can be done in just a few minutes. If you prefer the simplicity of a big flaky biscuit than these are definitely for you. If you like a little more flavor and zing I would suggest adding some garlic and even a dash of Tabasco sauce. These are simple, delicious, and beautiful. Enjoy.
Sausage Cheese Biscuits
adapted from King Arthur Flour
Yield: 20 biscuits
Ingredients
3 cups (12 3/4 oz) King Arthur Unbleached All-Purpose Flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon Pizza Dough Flavor, optional
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, cut in pats
1 cup (8 oz) yogurt, buttermilk, or sour cream (low-fat is fine)
3/4 pound breakfast sausage links, cooked and sliced in 1/2" pieces
1 cup (4 oz) diced cheddar cheese
Directions
Preheat the oven to 425°F.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and Pizza Dough Flavor. Add the butter, cut in pats. Work in the butter till the mixture is crumbly.
Add the sausage and cheese, mixing to distribute. Add the yogurt, buttermilk, or sour cream.
Mix just till everything is evenly moistened.
Transfer the dough to a piece of parchment or a lightly floured work surface. Pat and roll it into an 8" x 10" rectangle about 3/4" thick. Cut the dough into twenty 2" squares.
If you've been working on parchment, simply lift the parchment onto a baking sheet. Separate the biscuits so there's about 1" between them. If the biscuits aren't on parchment, space them on a lightly greased baking sheet, leaving about 1" between them.
Bake the biscuits for 20 to 25 minutes, or until they're a medium- to deep-golden brown.
Remove the biscuits from the oven, and cool them on a rack briefly. Serve warm.

Wow! These look sooo yummy. In the UK, we call biscuits "scones" and ours are plain and boring. Nothing like your great ones!
