Cream Biscuits With Bacon And Onion

Preparation : Chop bacon and cook in a medium fry pan until crisp. Pour off fat. Add onion and cook over medium heat until onion is soft, about 5 minutes. Make Basic Cream Biscuits as recipe directs, adding the bacon and onion to the dry ingredients. Bake as directed. Serve warm. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Grease or spray a baking sheet. Stir flour, salt, baking powder and sugar in a medium bowl. Stir in heavy cream with a fork until a soft dough is formed. Turn the dough onto a lightly floured board and knead until soft and blended. Pat or roll into a 1/2 to 3/4-inch thickness. Cut into 2-inch rounds and transfer to baking sheet. Alternatively, the dough may be dropped by heaping tablespoons 3-inches apart onto baking sheet. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm. Note: For crusty biscuits, place them about an inch or two apart on the baking sheet. For softer biscuits, place them close together.
