Orange Cream Cheese Biscuits

Ingredients:
3 cups Original Bisquick® mix
2 teaspoons grated orange peel
3/4 cup orange juice
1 package (3 ounces) cream cheese, softened
2 tablespoons orange marmalade
Sugar

Instructions:
1. Heat oven to 450°F. Mix Bisquick mix, orange peel and orange juice until soft dough forms; beat vigorously 30 seconds. Place dough on surface generously sprinkled with Bisquick mix; roll in Bisquick mix to coat. Knead 10 times.

2. Roll dough 1/2 inch thick. Cut with 2 1/2-inch cutter dipped in Bisquick mix. Place on ungreased cookie sheet. Mix cream cheese and marmalade. Spoon about 1 teaspoon cream cheese mixture onto center of each circle; sprinkle with sugar.

3. Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until golden brown.

For a Special Touch
For a citrus twist, use 1 teaspoon grated lemon peel and 1 teaspoon grated orange peel instead of the 2 teaspoons grated orange peel.
