Sweet Cheese Biscuits Dee Dees Food

BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Stir together the flour, powered milk, sugar, baking powder, cream of tartar and salt in a medium bowl.
• Using a pastry cutter, cut the butter and shortening into the dry mixture until blended thoroughly.
• Fold in the buttermilk until the dough comes together.
• On a lightly floured surface, turn out the dough and use hands to press into a circle 1 to 1 1/2 inches thick.
• Cut out circles with a biscuit cutter or a glass. Place the biscuits in cast-iron skillets, then brush the tops with the melted butter.
• Bake until golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes.

DEEP-FRIED CHEESECAKE BITES

Steps:

• For the cheesecake mixture: Line a baking sheet with wax paper. Beat the cream cheese until smooth in a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Add the sugar, vanilla and graham cracker crumbs and beat until well combined. Scoop 1-tablespoon balls of the cheesecake mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Freeze for about 30 minutes.
• For the strawberry sauce: Meanwhile, combine the strawberries, sugar and lemon juice in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring often, until the sugar is dissolved and the berries begin to break down and to give off their juices, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer to a blender or food processor and puree until smooth. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve to remove the seeds. Set aside.
• For the batter: Heat 2 inches of vegetable oil in a deep, heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat until the oil registers 350 degrees F on a deep-frying thermometer. Line a baking sheet with paper towels and set aside.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Add the milk and whisk until smooth.
• When the oil is ready, remove the cheesecake balls from the freezer. Working in batches, add the cheesecake balls to the batter a few at a time, turning to coat. Remove from the batter, allowing excess to drip off, and then carefully add to the oil. Fry, turning occasionally, until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes per batch (allow the oil to return to temperature between batches). Remove from the oil with a slotted spoon and drain on the paper towels.
• Serve warm, with strawberry sauce.

• 6. NOTES: Jalapeno jelly is a key ingredient in this recipe; it melts into a sweet-spicy glaze that coates these ribs and beans. You can find jalapeno is bigger town grocery stores. I live in a small town and couldn't find it so I made my own. This is a very easy recipe: https://www.justapinch.com/recipe/diane-smith/red-jalapeno-pepper-jelly-dee-dees/quick-easy-other-appetizer-2 Country-style ribs are extra meaty. If they come as a slab, you'll need to cut them apart to fit them in the slow cooker. Broiling the ribs first browns them and adds rich flavor, and removes excess fat. Because of the sweet heat in these ribs I felt a sweet cheese biscuit was perfect for this dish: https://www.justapinch.com/recipe/diane-smith/sweet-cheese-biscuits-dee-dees/biscuits The perfect side dish https://www.justapinch.com/recipe/diane-smith/mamas-old-fashioned-potato-salad-dee/quick-easy-potatoes
