These tender biscuit-like pastries are sprinkled with Greek cheese just before baking.
Ingredients:
2 cups all purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
10 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into pieces, room temperature
1/2 cup plain yogurt
2 large eggs, beaten to blend
2 large egg yolks, beaten to blend
11 1/2 cups grated kasseri cheese or romano
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh italian parsley
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Sift flour, baking powder and salt into large bowl. Add butter, yogurt and 2 eggs and stir to blend. Knead with hands in bowl until smooth soft dough forms.
