Chipas (Argentinean Cheese Biscuits) #EattheWorld #BakingBloggers

Chipas is an Argentinian Cheese Bread made, commonly enjoyed for breakfast or as a snack.  They come in many forms and sizes.  I shaped mine into biscuits.

Join me today as I visit Argentina with my Eat the World group and share biscuits from my Baking Bloggers group........

Our Eat the World Challenge is hosted by Evelyne of CulturEatz.  Each month she chooses a different Country to visit and invites us to join her in posting a recipe from said Country.   We post on the 10th of each and every month.  

I really love this group and appreciate that Evelyne started it after I requested more information on a similar group to which she belonged that had ended.  We have had a lot of fun this year and have thus far visited Cuba, Ireland, Thailand, Kenya, Sweden, New Zealand and France.  This month we headed to Argentina.

Every so often I get lucky in this blogging galaxy to which I belong and two worlds collide.  Such is the case this month.

Baking Bloggers is a wonderful group started by Sue of Palatable Pastime.  We once belonged to a group that shared cookie recipes each month.   When that group ended, Sue invited those who wished to join her, to post a baking recipe on the second Monday of each month.  Sue puts out a poll following each event and we vote on the next topic to be baked.

Since the inception in November of last year we have baked Pies, Filled Cakes, Pate a Choux, Cheesecakes, Calzones, Cupcakes, Fruit Tarts, with Puffed Pastry, using a Small Kitchen Appliance and Brownies/Bars.

This month September 10th is the second Monday of the month. We had voted to bake Biscuits/Scones.  Knowing that I wanted to combine the themes I conducted a google search for popular breads in Argentina and was immediately gratified with a ton of recipes for Chipas.

The images of Chipas showed numerous shapes and sizes. From dinner rolls, to bagels, to drop biscuits.  I decided to enlist the help of my favorite sous chef and make traditional biscuits using the Chipas dough.

These biscuits were great as an accompaniment to the Mexican Beer Chili that I shared with you last Friday.  I also enjoyed them for breakfast the next morning.  They were good plain and they were also good stuffed with scrambled eggs.  

Before I share the recipe that I  adapted for these yummy biscuits let's take a look at what the others in the groups are sharing today.
