Cheddar Bay Biscuits

To a lot of folks in my area, going to a “fancy” dinner means heading to the Red Lobster.  I’ve lived in coastal areas and had fresh seafood meals enough to know that its generic at best…except for those biscuits.  Cheesy garlic deliciousness!

I found a “tastes like” recipe that comes pretty close.  If you don’t like the flavor of Old Bay Seasoning, leave it out or reduce the amount.  A little goes a long way.

Not only are these yummy, but I love the crispy little points you get from drop biscuits and there’s lots of places in the rough texture for the buttery topping to cling!

Cheddar Bay Biscuits

Ingredients:

• Biscuits:
• 2 cups Original Bisquick
• 3/4 cups milk
• 1/4 cup butter
• 1/2 shredded cheddar cheese

• Topping:
• 1/3 cup butter
• 1/4 tsp. salt
• 1/4 tsp. Old Bay Seasoning (optional)
• 1/4 tsp. garlic powder
• 1/4 tsp. parsley flakes

Heat oven to 425 degrees F.

Combine all the biscuit ingredients in a mixing bowl.  Don’t overwork the dough, just mix enough to disperse the ingredients evenly.  Drop spoonfuls of dough onto a greased baking sheet.  Should make 8 biscuits.  Bake 15 minutes or until tops are a golden brown.

While dough is baking, melt the topping butter, then add the other ingredients.  When biscuits come out of the oven, brush them with the topping.  Serve warm.

Enjoy!
