Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon Baking powder
• 1 teaspoon Granulated sugar
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Unsalted butter (cold and cubed)
• 1 cup Sharp cheddar cheese (shredded)
• 3 tablespoons Fresh chives (finely chopped)
• 0.75 cup Whole milk

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, granulated sugar, and salt.

Step 3

Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry ingredients. Use a pastry cutter or your fingertips to work the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

Gently stir in the shredded cheddar cheese and chopped chives until evenly distributed.

Step 5

Pour in the milk and use a fork to mix until the dough just comes together. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 6

Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Gently knead it a few times to bring it together, then pat it into a 1-inch-thick disc.

Step 7

Using a 2.5-inch round cookie cutter, cut out biscuits and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Gather any scraps of dough, pat it out again, and continue cutting until all the dough is used.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown on top.

Step 9

Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy warm!
