Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon Baking powder
• 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
• 1 cup Shredded sharp cheddar cheese
• 0.75 cup Whole milk
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 tablespoon Parsley (optional, for garnish)

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, sugar, salt, and garlic powder until evenly combined.

Step 3

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

Step 4

Gently fold in the shredded cheddar cheese, ensuring it is evenly distributed.

Step 5

Gradually add the milk to the dry mixture, stirring with a spatula or wooden spoon until a soft dough forms. Avoid overmixing, as this can make the biscuits dense.

Step 6

Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Pat it into a 1-inch-thick rectangle, being careful not to compress it too much.

Step 7

Use a biscuit cutter or the rim of a glass to cut out biscuits, reshaping the leftover dough as needed. Place the biscuits onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Step 8

Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the tops are golden and the biscuits are cooked through.

Step 9

Optional: Sprinkle with fresh parsley for garnish before serving. Serve warm and enjoy!
