Baked Goods, Breakfast, Desserts

Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour

1/2 cup cornmeal

1/3 cup white sugar

1 tablespoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/3 cup butter, chilled

3/4 cup craisins (sweetened, dried cranberries)

2/3 cup eggnog

Directions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking sheet.

Stir the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, and salt together in a mixing bowl until blended.

Cut in the butter using a pastry cutter or two knives until coarse crumbs form.

Mix in the craisins.

Use a fork to stir in the eggnog and make a sticky dough.

Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface; dip hands in flour and knead the dough about 10 times.

Pat the dough out into a disk about 1/2 inch thick.

Dip a 2 inch diameter biscuit cutter into some flour, and cut out 8 to 10 rounds.

Place rounds about 2 inches apart on prepared baking sheet.

Use up remaining dough by patting it into a smaller disk and cutting again.

Bake in preheated oven until risen and golden brown, about 15 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.
