I Might Love Biscuits more than Chocolate

I'm not good with bread though...I have been known to burn:

Toast
Biscuits
Rolls
Pizza 

To be blunt I never have been able to make anything resembling bread go into my oven and come out edible. 
 
It's always burned...either completely unrecognizable or the bottom is rock hard brown/black. 
 
In fact if you were in my house at dinner time -- I might knock you down in my haste to get back to the bread that I forgot about in the oven.
 
So imagine my surprise when this combination of cheese, sausage and bread came out of MY OVEN incredibly yummy.
 
Side note:  This recipe sadly only makes 6 scrumptious biscuits...granted my kids were at their grandparents - so Hubby and I were able to split them.

Cut cheese into 6 cubes and place 1 in the center of each triangle; roll into a ball. Place the dough balls on a baking sheet, brush with some more cream and bake until golden, 12 to 15 minutes.
