BLUE CHEESE, DATE + HONEY BISCUIT

2 cups flour 

1 TB baking powder

1 TB sugar 

½ tsp salt 

½ cup pitted + chopped dates 

1 cup blue cheese - crumbled 

1 stick/8TB butter - chopped or grated, nice and cold 

2 TB honey 

¾ -1 cup heavy cream 

For topping: 1 TB heavy cream, 2 TB raw sugar 

Preheat oven to 425

Mix together all of the dry, from the flour through the blue cheese. Work in the butter, mixing it in just enough that it’s small and pea sized (if it’s grated you won’t need to work it in, just mix it up). Add in the honey and ¾ cup heavy cream and mix just enough to bring it together into a dough. If it’s too dry add more heavy cream 1TB at a time. 

Shape it into a circle. Cut into 8 triangles. Brush w/ extra heavy cream + sprinkle w/ raw sugar.

Bake for 20 minutes, or until the bottoms are baked through (nice and golden brown) and the tops are tall and not sinking in. 

Enjoy paired with Honey Butter!
