1/2 cup shortening |
1/2 cup sugar |
3 eggs |
2 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
2-1/2 teaspoons baking powder |
1 teaspoon ground mustard |
3/4 teaspoon salt |
1 cup 2% milk |
1-1/4 cups shredded cheddar-monterey jack cheese |
1/2 cup chopped sweet onion |
1 tablespoon poppy seeds |
1/8 teaspoon paprika |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375°. In a large bowl, cream shortening and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Combine flour, baking powder, mustard and salt; add to creamed mixture alternately with milk. Fold in cheese, onion and poppy seeds.
