Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Cold unsalted butter
• 1 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
• 0.75 cup Beer (lager works best)
• 1 tablespoon Honey
• 0.25 cup Optional: Fresh chives, chopped

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.

Step 3

Cut the cold butter into small cubes and add it to the dry ingredients. Use a pastry cutter or your fingertips to work the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

Mix in the shredded cheddar cheese and chives (if using), ensuring they are evenly distributed.

Step 5

In a separate bowl, whisk together the beer and honey until well combined.

Step 6

Pour the beer mixture into the dry ingredients and stir with a wooden spoon until a soft dough forms. Avoid overmixing.

Step 7

Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently pat it into a rectangle about 1 inch thick. Fold the dough in half and pat it down again. Repeat this folding process two more times for flakier layers.

Step 8

Using a round biscuit cutter or the rim of a glass, cut out biscuits and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Re-roll the scraps and repeat until all the dough is used.

Step 9

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

Step 10

Serve warm with butter or an extra drizzle of honey, and enjoy!
