Method
- Preheat your oven to 450°F.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, pepper, and baking soda. Whisk to combine. Using a fork or a pastry cutter, cut the cold Garlic & Herb Butter Spread into the flour mixture until it resembles crumbs. Make a well in the center, add the cheese and chives, and pour the buttermilk over. Stir carefully and slowly until a dough forms.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. With floured hands, knead the dough 3-4 times to bring it together. Pat the dough into an 8x8 square, about 1 inch thick, and cut into 9 square biscuits.
- Place the biscuits on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a Silpat. Brush with melted butter spread, sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake in the hot oven until puffed up and golden brown, about 15-18 minutes.
- Slice each biscuit in half and serve with prosciutto, scrambled eggs, and softened butter spread.

Notes
Ensure your oven is preheated to 400 degrees Fahrenheit before you start making the biscuits. This is crucial for proper rising. Cut the butter into small pieces to help it incorporate easily into the flour and prevent the dough from becoming too sticky. Add the milk gradually, a little at a time, until the dough is wet but not too sticky. You can use a biscuit cutter to cut out the biscuits; flour the cutter before cutting to prevent sticking.
