Recipe
Ingredients:
- 2 1/2 cups Bisquick baking mix
- 3/4 cup cold whole milk
- 4 tablespoons cold butter (1/2 stick)
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 heaping cup grated cheddar cheese
Brush on Top:
Mix together the following:
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1/4 teaspoon dried parsley flakes
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- pinch salt
Directions:
1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees
2. Combine Bisquick with cold butter in a medium bowl using a pastry cutter or a large fork. You don't want to mix too thoroughly. There should be small chunks of butter in there that are about the size of peas. Add cheddar cheese, milk and 1/4 teaspoon garlic. Mix by hand until combined, but don't over mix.
3. Drop approximately 1/4 cup portions of the dough onto an ungreased cookie sheet using an ice cream scoop.
4. Bake for 15 to 17 minutes or until the tops of the biscuits begin to turn light brown.
5. When you take the biscuits out of the oven, melt 2 tablespoons butter in a small bowl in your microwave. Stir in 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder and the dried parsley flakes. Use a brush to spread this garlic butter over the tops of all the biscuits. Use up all of the butter. Makes one dozen biscuits.

They do taste like the Red Lobster Cheddar Biscuits
The little extra cold butter added to the Bisquick makes for a flaky, light airy texture.
Eat them while they are hot
They are flaky and melt in your mouth!
My thoughts for today on butter, milk, cream & cheese.
Fresh milk, cream, buttermilk, cheese from a cow natural as you can get these days I'm all for. Give me butter any day better for you than the margarine which is just one step away from plastic.
