They have enough flavour to stand alone. I might have them with tiny cubes of fruit paste tonight as I have some of that in the fridge.

I had some cheese and rosemary biscuits that a friend made last year and loved them - but forgot about them until just now!

Title: Re: Cheese and Rosemary Biscuits
Post by: cookie1 on January 24, 2014, 06:55:26 am: Thanks for the bump. I must make some more. I love how the rosemary taste is subtle as it has been dried first.

Post by: mcmich on January 24, 2014, 07:03:07 am: Unfortunately I had to use dried from a jar rosemary as I didn't have time to dry my own. I used up some smoked cheese I had in the fridge. I can't really taste a smoky flavour. They are delicious and I've had to hide them from DH so I have enough for the BBQ on Sunday. :D

I rolled out quite thin - is best to put them back in the fridge to rest once cut to shape - I didn't with the last batch and they shrunk.
