Ingredients

  • 2 c. Bisquick mix
  • 2/3 c. milk
  • 1/2 c. shredded Cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 c. melted butter
  • 1/2 tsp. garlic powder

Instructions

  1. Mix Bisquick, milk, and shredded cheese until a soft dough forms.

  3. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes at 450°F until golden brown.
  4. Mix melted butter and garlic powder and brush over biscuits when taken out of the oven.

Tips & Substitutions

For a richer flavor, consider adding a teaspoon of your favorite herbs or spices, such as Italian seasoning or paprika, to the dough. If you're out of Bisquick, you can substitute with a homemade mix of flour, baking powder, and salt. To keep the biscuits extra cheesy, try mixing in a different type of cheese, like mozzarella or pepper jack, for a twist.

Serving Suggestions

These cheesy biscuits are perfect as a side for soups or salads, or enjoyed on their own with a bit of butter. They pair beautifully with savory dishes like chili or even as a breakfast option alongside scrambled eggs. For a fun twist, serve them alongside a bowl of creamy tomato soup for a comforting meal.

Storage & Reheating

Store any leftover biscuits in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. For longer storage, you can refrigerate them for up to a week or freeze them for up to 3 months. To reheat, simply place them in a preheated oven at 350°F for about 5-7 minutes until warmed through.
