How to Make Incredible Edible Cheese Biscuits

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon baking powder, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon baking soda.
  3. Cut in 1/2 cup cold shortening using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Stir in 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or your favorite cheese!).
  5. Gradually add 3/4 cup milk, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently 8-10 times.
  7. Roll the dough to about 1/2 inch thickness.
  8. Use a 2-inch biscuit cutter (or a knife) to cut out biscuits.
  9. Place biscuits on an ungreased baking sheet.
  10. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
