Ingredients
  

2 cups all-purpose flour

1 tablespoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed

3/4 cup whole milk

6 strips of bacon, cooked until crispy and crumbled

4 large eggs

1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese

1 tablespoon fresh chives, chopped (optional)

Cooking spray or additional butter for greasing the pan

Instructions
 

Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and grease a baking sheet with cooking spray or butter.

    Make the Biscuit Dough: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Add the cold, cubed butter and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work it into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

      Add Milk: Pour in the milk and mix gently with a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix. Fold in the crumbled bacon and half of the shredded cheddar cheese.

        Form Biscuit Rounds: Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Pat it down to about 1-inch thick and use a round cutter to cut out mini biscuit rounds (about 2 inches in diameter). Reroll scraps as needed.

          Bake the Biscuits: Place the biscuit rounds on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them slightly apart. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until they are golden brown. Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly.

            Cook the Eggs: While the biscuits are baking, in a skillet over medium heat, scramble the eggs until fully cooked. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

              Assemble Stacks: Once the biscuits have cooled, slice them in half. On the bottom half of each biscuit, layer some scrambled eggs, a sprinkle of the remaining cheddar cheese, and optionally, a few chopped chives. Top with the biscuit top to finish the stack.

                Final Touch: If desired, place the assembled stacks on the baking sheet and put them back in the oven for 3-5 minutes, just until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

                  Serve Warm: Serve these delicious mini stacks warm, perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a snack!
