Cheddar Bay Biscuits

Terri said she was interested in the recipe for the biscuits I had in my last post, so I thought I would post it on here in case anyone else wanted to make them also. These are seriously the easiest things to make, and they are SOOO good! Ingredients: 2 1/2 cups Bisquick baking mix 4 tablespoons cold butter (1/2 stick) 1 heaping cup grated Cheddar cheese 3/4 cup cold whole milk 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder Topping: 2 tablespoons butter, melted 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder 1/4 teaspoon dried parsley flakes 1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees 2. Combine Bisquick with cold butter in a medium bowl using a pastry cutter of a fork. You don't want to mix too thoroughly. There should be small chunks of butter in there about the size of peas. Add Cheddar cheese, milk and 1/4 teaspoon garlic. Mix by hand until combined, don't over mix. 3. Drop approximately 1/4 cup portions of the dough onto an ungreased cookie sheet using an ice cream scoop. Bake for 15-17 minutes, or until the tops of the biscuits begin to turn light brown. 4.While the biscuits are baking, melt the 2 tablespoons butter in a microwave. Stir in 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder and the dried parsley flakes. 5. As soon as you remove the biscuits from the oven, use a brush to spread the garlic butter over the tops of all the biscuits. Makes a dozen biscuits. This recipe is from "Top Secret Restaurant Recipes 2". This is a great cook book with lots of yummy recipes!!

THANK YOU!!! I can't wait to try them. One quick questions what is 1/4 teaspoon powder? Garlic powder? I get confused very easily when it comes to cooking :) thanks!
