  • Recipe: Cheddar Bay Biscuits


    I have been craving Red Lobster lately and one of the reasons is because of their famous Cheddar Bay Biscuits. My brother and I can knock out two or three baskets of these when we go there (don't judge us!). I was looking for a recipe of these biscuits and came across Todd Wilbur's "clone recipe" for them. I haven't tried his recipe yet but I cannot wait to get all the ingredients to make the biscuits!


    Ingredients (makes one dozen biscuits):

    • 2 1/2 cups Bisquick baking mix 
    • 4 tablespoons cold butter 
    • 1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, grated
    • 3/4 cup cold whole milk
    • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

    Brush on top

    • 2 tablespoons butter, melted
    • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder 
    • 1/4 teaspoon dried parsley flakes
    • 1 pinch salt

    Directions:

    1. Preheat oven to 400°F.
    2. Combine Bisquick with cold butter in a medium bowl using a pastry cutter or a large fork. Don't mix too thoroughly. There should be small chunks of butter in there that are about the size of peas. Add cheddar cheese, milk, and 1/4 teaspoon garlic. Mix by hand until combined, but don't over mix.

    3. Drop approximately 1/4-cup portions of the dough onto an ungreased cookie sheet using an ice cream scoop.

    4. Bake for 15 to 17 minutes or until the tops of the biscuits begin to turn light brown.

    5. When you take the biscuits out of the oven, melt 2 tablespoons butter in a small bowl in your microwave. Stir in 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder and the dried parsley flakes. Use a brush to spread this garlic butter over the tops of all the biscuits. Use up all of the butter.
