I have to admit that I’ve never eaten at a Red Lobster restaurant, where these biscuits are supposed to be famous. But if they taste anything like these babies, then I can understand why they’re famous!
They have a slightly different texture then your average biscuit. They’re more moist and rich, but none the less delicious. They went perfectly with the Loaded Baked Potato Soup I paired them with, but would go well with any meal. Another plus, they’re not made out of Bisquick like a lot of other recipes out there are.
Ultimate Cheddar Bay Biscuits
Ingredients
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 2 teaspoons sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 cup butter, softened
- 1 1/4 cups grated cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1 1/4 cups milk
Directions
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
- Place the first 7 ingredients in a large bowl and mix well with a whisk.
- Work in the butter with a pastry cutter or your fingers until well blended and the flour mixture resembles course corn meal.
- Stir in the cheese, then add the sour cream and milk, mixing just until combined.
- Scoop biscuit dough out by large spoonfuls and place in a greased 9 x 13 casserole pan. (Make sure it has deep sides, such as a lasagna pan, so the butter sauce doesn't spill over)
- Topping
- 6 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon parsley
- dash of salt
- Melt the butter in a microwave safe bowl. Stir in the garlic powder, parsley and salt.
- Spoon half of the butter mixture over the unbaked biscuits.
- Bake in your preheated oven for 25 minutes.
- Remove the biscuits from the oven, and spoon the rest of the butter mixture over them.
- Your baking time may vary. This recipe made 20 biscuits for me. If you make your biscuits smaller or bigger, it will change the baking time.
