Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon Baking powder
• 2 teaspoons Sugar
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.5 cups Unsalted butter, cold and cubed
• 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
• 0.75 cups Whole milk
• 0.25 cups Unsalted butter, melted (for brushing)
• 0.5 teaspoons Garlic powder (for brushing)
• 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

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

Step 3

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

Step 4

Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, ensuring it is evenly distributed throughout the mixture.

Step 5

Gradually add the milk, stirring until the dough just comes together. Do not overmix; the dough should be slightly sticky.

Step 6

Using a spoon or cookie scoop, drop heaping spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. This should yield about 10 biscuits.

Step 7

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

Step 8

While the biscuits are baking, mix the melted butter and garlic powder in a small bowl.

Step 9

Remove the biscuits from the oven and immediately brush the tops generously with the garlic butter mixture. Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley if desired.

Step 10

Serve warm and enjoy your homemade Red Lobster Cheese Biscuits!
