Jalapeño Cheddar Bay & Smoked Gouda Biscuits

This is my first time making biscuits. Whoomp! There it is! I made them to go with my signature Creamy Potato & Leek Soup. It was OFF THE CHAIN! These biscuits are light and fluffy with tiny bursts of smoky, cheesy, chili spiciness . They are easy to make and it takes less than 30 minutes from start to finish.
