By mirelsonp

Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
• 8 Tablespoons unsalted butter, cold
• 1/2 cup sour cream, plus extra for dipping
• 1 egg
• 1 (7 to 8 ounce) package dry chorizo, finely diced
• 1 1/2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
• whole-grain mustard

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

In a food processor, pulse together flour, baking powder, salt and baking soda. Add butter and pulse until mixture resembles coarse meal. In a small bowl, mix sour cream and egg. Add to food processor, pulse until almost combined. Add chorizo and cheese and pulse until mixed (dough will look crumbly).

On a lightly floured surface, pat dough into a square about 3/4-inch thick. Using a sharp knife, cut into about 16 triangles and place on a lined baking sheet. Bake until golden, 12 to 14 minutes. Serve with a bowl of sour cream mixed with whole-grain mustard.
