Cheddar Biscuits

It's almost that time here for comfort food, stews and baked goods.  I love this time of year. Everything about it.  The colors, the pumpkins, the harvest, the weather...  And, yes, admittedly I love pumpkin and am one of those people on Pinterest that can't get enough of pumpkin. My board is called Pumpkin Palooza. 

These biscuits are very soft and tender.  Melt in your mouth goodness.  One of the things that makes these biscuits is amazing is the cheddar cheese.  Pick the best cheddar you can get.  The sharper, the better.


Cheddar Biscuits

2 cups flour
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon seasoned salt
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
2/3 cup milk
1/3 cup butter
1 egg
2 tablespoons melted butter

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F . Grease a baking sheet.

Combine flour, Cheddar cheese, baking powder, salt, onion powder and garlic powder in a bowl.
In another bowl combine milk, 1/3 cup butter, and egg in a separate bowl. Mix into the flour mixture until chunky; don't over mix. Drop batter by tablespoonfuls onto the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Brush melted butter on top and continue baking until golden brown, about 5 minutes more.
