CHEDDAR HERB BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. and grease or spray a cast-iron skillet with cooking spray.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar, cream of tartar, and salt. Set aside.
• In a separate small bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, cheddar cheese, and chopped fresh herbs. Set aside.
• Using a fork or pastry cutter, cut the cubed cold butter into the flour mixture until it resembles a coarse meal and the butter is about the size of a pea.
• Mix the egg mixture into the flour mixture using a wooden spoon until it comes together to form a loose dough ball.
• Roll the dough into a ball, flour a clean work surface, and then using a rolling pin. Roll out the dough and cut the biscuits using a biscuit cutter or anything with a round shape.
• Place the cut biscuits into the prepared pan and bake for 10 to 15 minutes, until the tops of the biscuits are golden brown.
• Brush the tops of the biscuits with additional butter if you would like and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Using your hands or a pastry cutter, cut in butter with the dry ingredients until the mixture is coarse and crumbly. Then cut in the shortening, and mix in the scallions, parsley, and grated cheddar cheese.
• Make a well in the center of the flour mixture, pour in buttermilk, and stir with a fork just until dough comes together. Do not overmix. Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface, and knead gently 6 to 8 times.
• On a clean work surface, pat dough into a 1-inch-thick round. Cut out biscuits using a floured 3-inch-round biscuit cutter. Do not twist cutter. Gently re-form scraps of dough, and cut out more biscuits.
• Transfer the biscuits to a lightly buttered or parchment-lined baking sheet, and bake until golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes, rotating baking sheet halfway through. Serve hot.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees. In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking powder, garlic powder and salt. Cut in shortening and butter until coarse crumbs are formed. Lightly mix in grated cheese. Mix in buttermilk just until moist (dry spots here and there are ok - the biscuits will be tough if they are overmixed).
• Drop the biscuits onto a greased or lined baking sheet. Bake for 12-14 minutes, until browned and golden.
• While the biscuits are baking, in a small bowl combine three tablespoons melted butter, 1/4 teaspoon dried parsley flakes, 3/4 teaspoon garlic powder and a pinch of salt.
• Right when the biscuits come out of the oven, brush the butter/herb mixture over the biscuits evenly (alternately, you can dip the top of the biscuit into the butter mixture). Serve immediately.

• Position a rack in the upper third of the oven and preheat to 425 degrees. Lightly mist a large baking sheet with cooking spray.
• Make the biscuits: Pulse the flour, baking powder, sugar and salt in a food processor. Add the shortening and pulse until combined. Add the butter; pulse 4 or 5 times, or until the butter is in pea-size pieces. Add the cheese and pulse 2 or 3 times. Pour in the milk and pulse just until the mixture is moistened and forms a shaggy dough. Turn out onto a clean surface and gently knead until the dough comes together. Do not overwork the dough or the biscuits will be tough.
• Drop the dough onto the baking sheet in scant 1/4-cup portions, 2 inches apart, and bake until golden, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the garlic butter: Melt the butter with the garlic in a small saucepan over medium heat; cook for 1 minute. Remove from the heat and stir in the parsley. Brush the biscuits with the garlic butter and serve warm.
