Zesty Parmesan Biscuits


Ingredients
4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons baking powder
2 teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
6 tablespoons cold butter, cut into pieces
6 tablespoons cold solid vegetable shortening
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons buttermilk, divided
1/2 cup Frank's® RedHot® Original Cayenne Pepper Sauce
  Sesame seeds (optional)
   
Prep Time 30 minutes
Bake Time 12 minutes
1. Preheat oven to 450°F. Place flour, cheese, baking powder, sugar and baking soda in food processor or blender.* Cover; process 30 seconds. Add butter and shortening; process, pulsing on and off, until fine crumbs form. Transfer to large bowl.
2. Add 1 cup buttermilk and Frank's RedHot Sauce all at once. Stir together just until mixture starts to form a ball. (Dough will be dry. Do not over mix.)
3. Turn dough out onto lightly floured board. With palms of hands, gently knead 8 times. Using floured rolling pin or hands, roll dough to 3/4-inch thickness. Using 2-1/2-inch round biscuit cutter, cut out 16 biscuits, re-rolling dough as necessary.
4. Place biscuits 2 inches apart on large foil-lined baking sheet. Brush tops with remaining 2 tablespoons buttermilk; sprinkle with sesame seeds, if desired. Bake 12 to 15 minutes or until golden.
*Or, place dry ingredients in large bowl. Cut in butter and shortening until fine crumbs form using pastry blender or 2 knives. Add buttermilk and Frank's RedHot Sauce; mix just until moistened. Continue with step 3.
