new PaperCrafts edition

Had you spotted news of the latest PaperCrafts addition in blogs lately?

They're coming out with a new edition called PC Gourmet with wonderful paper crafts AND food recipes! Here's a sample of one of the recipes and projects you'll find in this issue, designed by Papercrafts Pro, Alisa Bangerter: Cheesy Garlic Drop Biscuits:





This a perfect recipe to pull out if you're short on time because there is no rolling or cutting. The cheese and garlic add extra kick to a plain biscuit, and kids love them. They're the perfect accompaniment to serve with soups or stews, and aregreat served with a salad.

  • 2 tbsp. granulated sugar
  • 4 tsp. baking powder

  • 1-1/2 c. grated cheddar cheese
  • 1-1/4 c. milk
  • Chives (optional)
