*Cheddar Biscuits*

Who doesn't like CHEESE!?!?
These are the MOST scrumptious Cheddar Biscuits that go with any meal! I LOVE the biscuits you get at Red Lobster and this is my re-creation of them...
(This Recipe makes about 2 1/2 Dozen Biscuits)
I Hope You Enjoy!


INGREDIENTS:
2 cups Flour
1 Tbsp Baking Powder
1/4 tsp Garlic Powder
1/2 tsp Salt
2 Tbsp Shortening
3 Tbsp Butter (cold)
1 Cup Buttermilk
1 1/4 Cups Shredded Cheese (I use a Mixed variety but use what you like!)

INGREDIENTS for BUTTER TOPPING
6 Tbsp Butter (melted)
1 tsp Parsley Flakes
2 tsp Garlic Powder
Salt (a pinch to season)


DIRECTIONS:
1.) Preheat Oven to 425*
2.) In a Medium-sized Bowl, Mix Together Flour, Baking Powder, Garlic Powder, & Salt.
3.) Cut in the Shortening & Butter. (It's good when Crumbles Form)
4.) Mix in Cheese Softly. Do NOT Smash together.
5.) Lightly Mix in the Buttermilk until the Dough is Moist.
DO NOT OVER MIX!
6.) Grease a Cookie Sheet & Place Large Spoonfuls of Biscuit Dough about 2 inches Apart.
7.) Bake for 12 minutes (Biscuits will be Golden on top)

** While the Biscuits are Baking, Mix Together the Topping Ingredients & Set Aside. When Biscuits are Done, Place them Immediately onto a Serving Plate & Brush the Topping Mixture onto the Hot Biscuits. Serve While still Warm! **
