Ingredients

• 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 0.5 cups Unsalted butter
• 1 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
• 0.25 cups Parmesan cheese, grated
• 0.5 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Garlic powder (optional)
• 0.25 teaspoons Paprika (optional, for garnish)
• 2 tablespoons Milk

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and garlic powder (if using).

Step 3

Cut the cold unsalted butter into small cubes and add it to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to rub the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese and grated Parmesan cheese until evenly distributed.

Step 5

Add the milk, one tablespoon at a time, and mix gently until the dough comes together. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 6

Lightly flour a clean surface and roll out the dough to about 1/4-inch thickness. Use a cookie cutter or knife to cut out your desired biscuit shapes.

Step 7

Place the cut biscuits on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a small gap between each biscuit.

Step 8

If desired, sprinkle a pinch of paprika on top of each biscuit for added flavor and color.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.

Step 10

Remove from the oven and let the cheese biscuits cool slightly on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy them warm or at room temperature!
