Garlic Cheese Biscuits
Description
These Garlic Cheese Biscuits are the ultimate comfort food, offering a perfect balance of tender, fluffy texture and savory richness. Made with a simple Bisquick base, they are elevated by the addition of sharp cheddar cheese and a fragrant garlic butter topping. The cheddar melts into every bite, creating pockets of gooey goodness, while the garlic adds a warm, aromatic punch that pairs beautifully with soups, stews, or as a standalone snack. Ideal for busy weeknights or lazy weekend breakfasts, these biscuits come together quickly with minimal effort. They are a vegetarian-friendly treat that brings a homemade, Southern-style charm to any table. Enjoy them warm from the oven for the best flavor and texture.Ingredients
Directions
-
Preheat your oven to 450&# 194;°F (230ðC). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
-
In a large mixing bowl, combine the Bisquick and shredded cheddar cheese. Stir until evenly distributed.
-
Add the milk to the dry ingredients. Stir gently with a fork or spatula just until the dough comes together. Do not overmix, as this can make the biscuits tough.
-
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Pat or roll the dough out to about 1/2-inch thickness.
-
Use a round biscuit cutter or a glass to cut out 12 biscuits. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 1 inch apart to allow for rising.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown on top.
-
While the biscuits are baking, mix the melted butter, minced garlic, and chopped chives in a small bowl.
-
Remove the biscuits from the oven and immediately brush the top of each biscuit with the garlic butter mixture.
-
Return to the oven for 1-2 minutes if you prefer the butter to set slightly, or serve immediately while warm.

Note
If you do not have fresh garlic, you can substitute 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder as indicated in the original ingredient list.
For extra cheesy biscuits, sprinkle a little extra shredded cheddar on top before baking.
These biscuits are best served fresh and warm. They can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days, or frozen for longer storage. Reheat in a toaster oven or microwave before serving.
Ensure the butter is melted but not hot when mixing with garlic to avoid cooking the garlic prematurely.
