If you’ve ever eaten at Red Lobster you know what Cheddar Bay Biscuits are. They recently had their All You Can Eat Shrimp Fest, so we went out to dinner. I had forgotten how good these biscuits are. The very sweet waitress sent me home with half a dozen of these yummy biscuits. I savored every bite. Garlic and cheese, yum. The next day I did a search and I found this recipe on the Slow Roasted Italian.

I made mine with whole wheat flour and 1 % milk. They turned out very moist and tasty. They were so easy to make. Lots of butter and cheese no wonder they taste so darn good. 🙂

2 cups whole wheat or all purpose flour
1 Tbsp baking powder
1 Tbsp sugar
1 Tbsp garlic powder
3/4 teaspoon sea salt
1 1/2 sticks  unsalted butter 
1 cup milk
1 (8 oz) package shredded mild cheddar cheese

Preheat the oven for 425 degree F

Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.

In a small saucepan or microwaveable dish melt 1 cup of the butter, then set aside.

In a bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, garlic powder and salt.

Pour the melted butter and milk into the flour mixture and whisk together until wet, do not over mix.

Fold in the cheese.

Drop onto baking sheet.

Bake for 10 – 12 minutes until golden brown.

Melt the rest of the butter and brush on top of finished biscuits.

I sometimes share at these parties.
