In a nod to the corn sold on street corners in Mexico, Kay Chun makes 
these chunky biscuits with corn, cheese, cilantro and lime.

Active: 25 MIN
Total: 1:25

Preheat the oven to 350F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. 
In a large bowl, whisk the flour with the baking powder and salt. 
Using your fingertips, blend in the cubed butter until pea-size 
pieces form. Stir in the cheese, corn, cilantro, lime zest and heavy 
cream just until a soft dough forms. Spoon heaping 2-tablespoon 
mounds of dough onto the prepared sheets about 1" apart. Refrigerate 
for 30 minutes.

Bake the biscuits for 30 minutes, until golden. Transfer to a rack to 
cool slightly before serving.

Make Ahead: The biscuits can be stored in an airtight container at 
room temperature overnight and reheated before serving.

Review:  made these and they are delicious!  You can definitely sub 
the cheese with another.
