So most of you have probably had those yummy Sausage Balls that people serve as appetizers at party's...right??? Well, I was trying to make them once, but the recipe I had was very "non-specific" about the size of the balls, and the temperature to cook them at. So I just winged it!!! What came of it was a WONDERFUL breakfast treat for my family!!! Soft, warm, breakfast biscuits that DON'T fall apart when you eat them. You can also freeze the extras and take them out a few at a time and reheat them in the microwave for a quick breakfast on the go! I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as my family has!!!
BREAKFAST COOKIES yield 36
1 lb breakfast sausage, browned and drained (sometimes I'll add a little Crushed Red Pepper Flakes to the sausage while cooking to spice things up!)
1 lb shredded cheddar cheese
3 cups baking mix (like Bisquick or Jiffy)
½ cup water
Preheat oven to 350° F. Place ingredients in large bowl and mix well by hand. Turn out onto floured board and knead 10 to 12 times. Shape mixture into balls (I use my medium Pampered Chef scoop) and flatten slightly. Bake for 20 minutes on well greased cookie sheet until lightly browned on bottoms. Cool and EAT!!
