    Food Reference
    CHEDDAR CHEESE BISCUITS
    Ingredients

    ~ 2 cups all-purpose flour, plus extra as needed
    ~ 4 teaspoons baking powder
    ~ � teaspoon baking soda
    ~ � teaspoon garlic salt
    ~ 5 oz. salted cold butter, cubed
    ~ 5 oz. shredded Cheddar cheese
    ~ 8 oz. buttermilk

    Directions

    Preheat your oven to 400 degrees.
    Place the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a food processor. Whiz briefly to incorporate the ingredients and aerate the flour. Add the butter and process until a coarse meal is produced.

    Transfer the flour/butter combo to a large stainless steel bowl. Add the cheese and buttermilk. With a rubber spatula mix the dough until it comes together, scraping the sides to incorporate. Then with the spatula or your hands, knead the batter gently for just a minute or two while still inside the bowl.

    Spread the dough out on a lightly floured board to a height of one inch. Use the least amount of bench flour necessary. This a somewhat sticky dough which is the target consistency.

    Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
    Spray the inside of a standard biscuit cutter with vegetable spray.
    Cut out the biscuits, spraying the cutter after each one.
    Spread them out evenly on the parchment-lined baking sheet.
    Reform the dough and cut again as you get toward the end.
    You should get about 8 biscuits.
    Bake until golden brown, about 15 minutes.
