Amy- I do declare, Suz and I loves us some garlic cheese biscuits and can do some damage to a basket of these miniature bites of goodness. We fell in love with these a long time ago at Mrs. Paula’s restaurant, “The Lady and Sons”. I love how they bring the big tray around and serve you these little puffs of heaven and the hoe cakes. We would eat them until we about made ourselves sick. When we started catering lunches for businesses we made these a lot. People just love them and would always choose these for their bread. We would make these by the hundreds. You are going to love how easy these are to make and how fabulous they taste.
Garlic Cheese Biscuits
This is what you need-
2 ½ cups biscuit mix
½ stick cold butter
1- 1 1/4 cup cold milk
1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, room temp
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
For the garlic butter-
½ stick real butter, melted
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
Pinch salt
Parsley flakes
Make them-
Turn that heat to 400 degrees on your oven. Cut cold butter into thin slivers. Put your biscuit mix into a medium bowl and work the cold butter into the mix with a fork. You want your mix to be crumbly when you get finished. Add your milk, cheese and garlic powder and mix it up. Get you a heaping scoop of the biscuit mix using a 1.5 tablespoon cookie scoop. Place on a greased cookie sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes or until biscuits are golden and cooked throughout. While your biscuits are baking, make your garlic butter by combining the butter, garlic powder, salt and parsley flakes. Remove biscuits from oven and brush hot biscuits with garlic butter. Don’t be dumb, get you some. Is that good or what? Got leftover biscuits? Take the biscuits and slice, butter and toast just until heated and golden. Take you a slice of Roma tomato and slap it on the biscuit. Top with some of our dill mayo and enjoy. You talk about some fine eating right there.
