Slowly beat in the cheddar cheese and Worcestershire sauce. Gradually add the flour mixture, stirring with a rk, until well blended. On a lightly floured surface, shape the dough into a long roll about 1¾-inches in diameter. Wrap in plastic wrap or foil. Place on a platter and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, better overnight. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Slice the dough about ⅓ inch thick. With your hands, roll each slice into a ball. Flatten slightly and place on an ungreased baking sheet about 2 inches apart. Bake 8 minutes in the preheated oven. Biscuits will only brown slightly on the bottom.
