Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Add the cold, cubed unsalted butter to the bowl. Using a pastry cutter or your fingertips, work the butter into the dry ingredients until it resembles coarse crumbs. Small pea-sized pieces of butter are ideal.
Stir in the shredded sharp cheddar cheese and chopped fresh chives (if using) until evenly distributed.
Make a well in the center of the mixture and pour in the milk. Gently mix with a spatula or wooden spoon until the dough just comes together. Be careful not to overmix.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Gently pat it into a rectangle about 1-inch thick.
Fold the dough in half, rotate it 90 degrees, and pat it out again. Repeat this folding process 2-3 times to create flaky layers.
Using a sharp knife or a biscuit cutter, cut the dough into 8 equal pieces. Place the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 1 inch apart.
Bake the biscuits in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown and puffed.
Remove the biscuits from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving. Enjoy them warm with butter or as a versatile accompaniment to any meal.
