Ingredients
Biscuits
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/3 cup butter or shortening
- 1 cup milk or buttermilk
- 1 cup sharp cheddar cheese
Topping
- 2 tablespoons butter melted
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or use an ungreased baking sheet.
- In a large mixing bowl, stir together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon baking powder, 1 tablespoon granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, and 1 teaspoon salt.
- Grate 1/3 cup butter (cold) using a box cheese grater and stir into the flour mixture, or cut butter into small pieces and use a pastry cutter to cut the fat into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse meal or sand.
- Gradually pour in 1 cup milk or buttermilk while stirring until the dough just comes together. Avoid overmixing to keep the biscuits tender.
- Fold in the 1 cup sharp cheddar cheese until it is evenly distributed and just combined.
- Using a large spoon or ice cream scoop, portion the dough into 12 even mounds and place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 1 inch apart. They do not need to be perfectly shaped.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10–12 minutes, or until the biscuits are lightly golden on top.
- While the biscuits bake, prepare the garlic butter. In a small bowl, melt 2 tablespoons butter in a microwave in 15-second increments until melted. Stir in 1 teaspoon garlic powder and 1 teaspoon dried parsley.
- Remove the biscuits from the oven and immediately brush the tops with the garlic butter mixture.
Notes
- Keep your butter or shortening as cold as possible. Place it into the freezer for 10 to 15 minutes before using in the recipe for extra flaky results.
- Handle the dough with your hands as little as possible.
- Work quickly to keep your dough cold. If you need to, pop the formed biscuits into the fridge for 15 to 30 minutes to chill before baking.
