Ingredients

  • 2 cups All-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon Baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon Sugar
  • 0.5 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.5 cup Unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
  • 1 cup Cheddar cheese (shredded)
  • 0.75 cup Milk
  • 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon Parsley (optional, minced for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

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

Step 3

Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry ingredients. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese until evenly distributed.

Step 5

Pour the milk into the mixture and gently stir with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the dough should be slightly sticky.

Step 6

Using a large spoon or cookie scoop, drop heaping spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Step 7

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

Step 8

Remove the biscuits from the oven and let them cool slightly on the baking sheet for 5 minutes. Optionally, brush the tops with melted butter and sprinkle with minced parsley for added flavor and garnish.

Step 9

Serve warm and enjoy your freshly baked cheesy drop biscuits!
