I need a BEHOLD THE POWER OF CHEESE icon, I really do. (Oh God, does anyone remember those ads?)

Blue Cheese Biscuits
3/4 cup blue cheese, crumbled
1/2 cup unsalted butter
1 large egg yolk
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 beaten egg (different from the yolk, you'll see)

Cream butter, cheese, and egg yolk. Work in flour with hands until relatively uniform dough is created. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.

Preheat oven to 400F. Lay cooled dough on floured surface and roll out until 1/4 inch thick. Cut into squares or half moons and place on parchment papered baking sheets; my personal method is a circular cookie cutter or glass, and then cut the rounds in half. Continue to reroll dough until all is used.

Brush the tops with the beaten egg and bake for 10 to 15 minutes, until crisp around edges and slightly puffed in centers. Remove to wire racks to cool.

Hehehe, you made me think of JP Chee's family reunion pictures, where everyone was wearing t-shirts that read "The Power of Chee's".

Made me giggle on a lousy morning, so thanks :D
