Ingredients
- 3 cups Flour
- 4 Tablespoons Brown Sugar
- ½ teaspoons Salt
- 4 teaspoons Baking Powder
- 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
- ¾ cups Cold Butter, Cut Into Pieces
- ½ cups Dried Cranberries
- 8 ounces, weight Brie, Diced
- 1-¼ cup Buttermilk
- 1 stick Butter
Preparation
Place a rack in the middle position of your oven and preheat oven to 425 F.
In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, salt, baking powder and soda, and whisk until combined. Using a fork, pastry blender or your hands, add the 3/4 cup of butter pieces to the flour and mix until coarse little crumbles remain.
Toss in 1/4 cup cranberries and 1/3 of the diced brie. Add buttermilk and stir with a spoon until just combined, not overmixing. Use your hands if needed to bring the dough together.
Press dough on a sheet of parchment paper or cutting board until it is an inch thick. Then cut the dough into squares.
Melt 1 stick of butter then pour it into the bottom of a pie plate. Place the squares of dough in the pie plate as snugly as you can. You may have some extra dough.
Sprinkle the rest of the brie and cranberries over top.
Bake on the middle rack of the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until biscuits are golden brown and the cheese has melted.
Serve with toothpicks and napkins.
