Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
• 0.5 cup unsalted butter (cold, diced)
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 0.75 cup whole milk
• 0.25 cup unsalted butter (melted)
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (chopped)

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 flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar until well combined.

Step 3

Add the cold diced butter to the dry ingredients. Using a pastry cutter or your fingertips, cut the butter into the flour mixture until it forms a coarse, crumbly texture.

Step 4

Fold in the shredded cheddar cheese until evenly distributed.

Step 5

Pour in the milk and gently stir until the dough just comes together. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 6

Using a large spoon or an ice cream scoop, drop the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches of space between each biscuit.

Step 7

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

Step 8

While the biscuits are baking, prepare the garlic butter topping by mixing the melted butter, garlic powder, and chopped parsley in a small bowl.

Step 9

Remove the biscuits from the oven and immediately brush the tops with the garlic butter mixture using a pastry brush.

Step 10

Serve the biscuits warm and enjoy!
