Recipe GLPR3485cea9e5edec
Buttery, cheesy biscuits that rival the restaurant favorite. A tender crumb made with Bisquick baking mix, sharp cheddar cheese, and a touch of garlic and parsley finish these golden-brown biscuits. The garlic butter brushed on top while still warm makes them absolutely irresistible.

Ingredients
2 1/2 cups Bisquick baking mix
4 tablespoons cold butter
1 cup grated cheddar cheese
3/4 cup whole milk
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon dried parsley flakes
2 tablespoons butter, melted
Directions
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the Bisquick baking mix with the 4 tablespoons of cold butter. Using a pastry blender or two knives, cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs with small pea-sized pieces of butter still visible throughout.
Stir in the grated cheddar cheese, 1/4 teaspoon of the garlic powder, and the milk. Fold the ingredients together gently by hand until just combined; do not overmix or the biscuits will be tough.
Using a spoon or small ice cream scoop, drop heaping spoonfuls of the dough onto an ungreased baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake for 15 to 17 minutes, until the tops of the biscuits are golden brown.
While the biscuits bake, mix together the 2 tablespoons of melted butter with the dried parsley flakes and remaining 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder in a small bowl.
Remove the biscuits from the oven and immediately brush the tops of each biscuit with the garlic-parsley butter mixture. Serve warm.
Comments
This is an honest, practical weeknight biscuit with no special shopping trips—Bisquick, cheddar, butter, milk, and garlic powder are core items at every Charlotte grocer. The cost per serving runs under 30 cents, making it a genuine budget win alongside soup or stew. The 45-minute stated time is inflated; mixing, shaping, and baking takes closer to 25 minutes once the oven preheats, which is worth knowing if you're cooking dinner. These reheat reasonably in a 300-degree oven and feed a family without fuss, but they're essentially a side dish, not the main, and the flavor depends entirely on butter quality and how much garlic powder you're willing to add beyond the recipe.
