Instructions

Biscuits: In a large bowl, combine baking mix, milk, melted butter and chives; mix just until moistened.

Turn onto a lightly floured surface; knead gently 8-10 times. Pat or roll to 3/4-inch thickness; cut with a floured 2-1/2-inch biscuit cutter.

Place apart on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake at 400 degrees 12-14 minutes or until golden brown.

Egg Filling: In another bowl, whisk eggs, milk and salt; set aside.

Place a large Teflon-coated skilled over medium heat. Add prosciutto and green onions; cook until prosciutto begins to brown, stirring occasionally. Stir in butter until melted.

Add egg mixture; cook and stir until eggs are thickened and no liquid egg remains. Stir in cheese; remove from heat.

To Serve: Split warm biscuits in half. Fill with scrambled egg mixture and serve immediately.
