Cheddar Drop Biscuits are soft, fluffy biscuits loaded with cheesy flavor. They’re called “drop” biscuits because you simply scoop the dough onto a baking sheet—no rolling or cutting needed. 🧀🥐
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ tsp garlic powder (optional)
- ½ cup cold butter, cubed
- 1 cup shredded Cheddar Cheese
- ¾ cup milk

Instructions

- Add the cold butter and cut it into the flour with a fork or pastry cutter until crumbly.
- Stir in the shredded Cheddar Cheese.
- Pour in the milk and mix just until a soft dough forms.
- Use a spoon to drop mounds of dough onto a lined baking sheet.
- Bake for 12–15 minutes until golden brown.
