Cheddar Cornmeal Biscuits with Chives

From EatingWell: July/August 2008

These chive-flecked cornmeal biscuits taste best made with extra-sharp Cheddar, but any type of Cheddar will work.

FANTASTIC

Oh wow. These are SO good! I made mine with rosemary instead of chives (and less than 1/4 cup) and it really enhanced the flavor! I used the honey which I didn't taste but that's probably because the fresh rosemary stole the show. I didn't taste the cheese so I may add more in the future. The sour cream definitely kept these moist! I made a similar recipe from this site (sage-scented cornmeal bicuits) and these were more sticky to work with but SOOOO worth it! A must try

Pros: YUMMY

Nice for a change

These were nice for a change; I made them to go with broccoli and cheese soup. It's true; they aren't cornbread, but they're not supposed to be. It's like a cornbread-biscuit hybrid that is mostly biscuit, but has a nice grittiness that you associate with cornbread.
I used plain yogurt in place of the sour cream with no problem, and I also used sage instead of the chives (although less than it called for, since sage is stronger), since that's what I had. It worked great!

i loved this recipe, i had to leave out the pepper and chives for my daughter, and i did not follow the directions in order, but they came out very good. i think i would like a crunch in them maybe nuts of some kind. for myself later i will use the chives and pepper.

These are OK. I was definitely expecting more of a corn bread and ended up with more of a biscuit. I will make them again however, I will use more cornmeal and less flour. I didn't even taste the cheddar, so I will add more of cheese. Also, the honey is a must!
