Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Grease a 12-cup muffin tin with butter and set aside.

Put the butter and baking mix in the bowl of a food processor and pulse to combine. Add the cheese, buttermilk, cream and pimientos and pulse until just combined.

Using 2 spoons, drop 1/4-cup quantities of dough into the cups of the prepared muffin tin. Brush with buttermilk if desired. Bake until golden on top, 20 to 25 minutes.

Slice the biscuits in half. Spread some mustard onto the bottom half of each biscuit. Top with sliced ham and cover with the biscuit tops.

Makes 12 servings.
