CHEDDAR BAY BISCUITS

★Ingredients

Biscuits

2 cups all-purpose flour

1 tablespoon baking powder

2 teaspoons garlic powder

1 tablespoon granulated sugar

1 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed

1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded

3/4 cup whole milk

Garlic Butter Topping:

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted

1/2 teaspoon dried parsley

★Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 450°F (232°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  2. Mix dry ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, garlic powder, and salt.
  3. Cut in the butter: Add the cold, cubed butter to the flour mixture. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Add cheese and milk: Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese until evenly distributed. Pour in the milk and stir until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
  5. Form the biscuits: Scoop about 1/4 cup of dough and drop onto the prepared baking sheet. You should have about 10-12 biscuits.
  6. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown.
  7. Prepare the garlic butter: While the biscuits are baking, melt the butter in a small bowl. Stir in the garlic powder and dried parsley.
  8. Brush with garlic butter: As soon as the biscuits come out of the oven, brush the tops with the garlic butter mixture.
  9. Serve warm:
  10. Enjoy!
