These small biscuit-like quick breads are laced with Cheddar cheese, crumbled bacon and fresh chives. Serve them for brunch, lunch or dinner.

What You Need:
� 2 cups flour
� 2 tsp. CALUMET Baking Powder
� 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) cold butter
� 3 eggs, divided
� 1/2 cup half-and-half
� 1-1/2 cups KRAFT Shredded Sharp Cheddar Cheese
� 8 slices OSCAR MAYER Center Cut Bacon, crisply cooked, crumbled
� 1 Tbsp. chopped fresh chives
� 1 Tbsp. water

Make It:
� Preheat oven to 425�F. Mix flour and baking powder in large bowl. Cut in butter with pastry blender or 2 knives until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add 2 of the eggs and the cream; beat with wire whisk until well blended. Add to flour mixture; stir just until moistened. Stir in cheese, bacon and chives. Shape into ball.

� Knead dough on lightly floured surface 10 times. Roll out to 12x6-inch rectangle. Cut into 8 (3-inch) squares; cut each square diagonally in half. Place on lightly greased baking sheet. Beat remaining egg and the water with wire whisk until well blended; brush over dough triangles.

� Bake 14 to 16 min. or until lightly browned. Serve warm.
