How to Make Cheese And Garlic Drop Biscuits
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
- In a large bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon baking powder, 1 teaspoon cream of tartar, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, and 1/8 - 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder (start with less and add more to taste).
- Cut in 1 cup cold shortening using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups milk and 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir gently with a wooden spoon just until combined. Do not overmix.
- Drop by large spoonfuls (about 1/4 cup each) onto a greased baking sheet.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown.
- While biscuits are baking, melt 1/4 cup butter. Remove biscuits from oven and immediately brush with melted butter mixed with 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder.
