Cup of Yum
Biscuits
- Combine the flour, baking powder, parsley, and garlic powder, then use a fork or pastry blender to cut the butter into the flour until it is very fine and completely coated with flour. Add the cheese and stir.
- Stir in ¾ cup buttermilk until a nice dough forms. If the dough is too dry, add a little milk at a time until a nice dough forms.
Notes
- Tips: You can bake the biscuits over the creamed chicken, or separately by themself. Don’t over mix the biscuit dough or it will get tough.
- Storage: Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
