Follow the steps in order for the best result.
Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures the oven is ready when the biscuit dough is prepared.
In a large mixing bowl, take the softened butter and beat it using an electric mixer until it achieves a light and fluffy consistency. This step is crucial for a tender biscuit.
Add the grated cheddar cheese, cayenne pepper, salt, and crisp rice cereal to the bowl. Using a spoon, mix all the ingredients together until they are thoroughly combined and evenly distributed.
Take a teaspoon and scoop out portions of the dough. Drop each spoonful onto an ungreased baking sheet, spacing them slightly apart.
Use a fork to gently flatten each biscuit dough portion. This helps them bake evenly and creates a pleasing texture.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 10 to 15 minutes. The biscuits are done when they are set but not browned. Keep a close eye to prevent over-baking.
Once baked, remove the biscuits from the oven and transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely. This prevents them from becoming soggy.
Serve the cheese krispies biscuits warm or at room temperature and enjoy.
