Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk, more if needed
- 1/3 cup cold butter
- 3/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup melted butter
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450°F (230°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, sugar, garlic powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Cut cold butter into small pieces and blend into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Stir in shredded cheddar cheese.
- Add milk gradually and mix until a soft dough forms. Add more milk if the dough is too dry.
- Drop spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
- While biscuits bake, combine melted butter, dried parsley, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning (if using) in a small bowl.
- Remove biscuits from the oven and brush generously with the garlic butter mixture.

- Cheddar cheese can be substituted with your favorite cheese for variation.
