Cheddar Garlic Biscuits

These biscuits are the perfect accompaniment to almost any meal. Seafood, fish, steak, etc. They are fast and easy to make, and include no pre-made ingredients (baking mix, refrigerated biscuits, etc).

The secret to tender biscuits is to NOT OVER MIX. Biscuits need care. They are simple, but many people are lump-phobic. It may take some time and effort, but if you can overcome this, your biscuits will thank you.

Put the flour, baking powder, sugar, cream of tartar, salt, cayenne pepper, and garlic powder into a mixing bowl. Stir until combined. Add in the softened butter and cut in with a pastry blender, a few forks, or with your hands if you are brave. Stop when the butter is worked in, but still lumpy.

Add in the cheese, sour cream, and milk and stir until the dry ingredient are wet. Leave some lumps!

Place the dough in large spoon-fulls on a greased cookie sheet with sides (don’t use a flat sheet!).

Melt 1 stick of butter, 1.5 teaspoons of garlic powder, 1 tsp parsley, and ÂĽ tsp salt in a bowl. Spoon half of this mixture over the unbaked dough on the cookie sheet.

Bake at 450 for 18-20 minutes, depending on the size of biscuits you’ve made. You want them golden brown on the top.

Spoon the rest of the butter mixture over the cooked rolls.
