Ingredients
- 2 ½ cups flour
- 2 ½ teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 cup (8 oz) Irish stout (such as Guiness) or other dark beer, cold
- 8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted Irish butter FROZEN, plus 2 tablespoons, melted
- 7 oz aged Irish cheddar or extra sharp cheddar cheese grated
Notes
- It's crucial that the dough be kept cold at all times! If it starts to get warm at any point, place it in the freezer for a few minutes to cool down before proceeding.
- Don't over-mix the dough. It will look shaggy, chunky and unkempt, but that will result in the most tender, flaky biscuits.
- This recipe will work fine with non-Irish ingredients, but you risk disappointing St. Patrick himself.
- These biscuits are best right out of the oven. If you'd like to make them ahead, cut the dough into squares, then freeze and bake right before serving for best results.
- If baking from frozen, reduce the oven temperature to 400 degrees F and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes.
