Cheddar Bay Biscuits – Better Than Restaurants!

This awesome Cheddar Bay Biscuits recipe tastes just like Red Lobsters. It’s anytime grub. Sometimes I make them just to eat by themselves. They’re that good!

 

I’m from the south so you know I like my biscuits. I especially like biscuits for breakfast with bacon and eggs. Or even better with some sausage gravy.

But this ain’t no southern biscuit limited to mostly breakfast.

Don’t leave off the butter glaze. That’s what makes them special to me.

This homemade Cheddar Bay Biscuits recipe makes biscuits better than the restaurant! 

Course: Appetizer
Cuisine: American
Keyword: Cheddar Bay Biscuits
Servings: 4
Calories: 305 kcal
Ingredients
Biscuits:
  • 2 1/2 cups Bisquick
  • 4 Tablespoons cold butter
  • 1 cup cheddar cheese shredded
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
Butter Glaze:
  • 3 Tablespoons butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 3/4 teaspoon dried parsley flakes
Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Lightly grease or line one cookie sheet with parchment; set aside.
  2. Combine Bisquick with cold butter in a medium bowl using a pastry cutter (I just use a fork to cut the butter into the mixture). Don't worry about mixing too thoroughly; there will be small chunks of butter in the mix about the size of peas. Add cheddar cheese, milk, and garlic powder. Mix by hand until combined, but don't over mix.
  3. Drop 1/4 cup portions of the dough onto the lightly greased or parchment lined cookie sheet. Bake for 11-13 minutes in preheated oven or until the tops of the biscuits begin to turn light brown.
  4. While the biscuits are baking, melt butter is a small bowl in the microwave. Stir in garlic powder and dried parsley flakes.
  5. After biscuits have come out of the oven, use a brush to spread the garlic butter over the tops of all the biscuits. Sprinkle a little kosher salt on the freshly coated biscuits. Makes one dozen.

 

Enjoy!

Course: Dessert
Cuisine: American
Keyword: Old Fashioned Chocolate Meringue Pie
Servings: 6
Calories: 375 kcal
Ingredients
Pie Ingredients
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3 egg yolks
  • 1 1/3 cups white sugar
  • 1 12 fluid ounce can evaporated milk
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 1 9 inch pie shell, baked
Meringue Ingredients
  • 3 egg whites
  • 1/8 teaspoon cream of tartar
  • 6 tablespoons white sugar
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  2. Sift together the cocoa powder and the flour and pour them into a saucepan. Whisk the egg yolks and 1 1/3 cups sugar. Gradually add the evaporated milk, whisking constantly; slowly pour the milk mixture into the saucepan, whisking until combined.
  3. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly with a flat-bottomed wooden spoon or spatula, until the mixture begins to thicken and coats the back of the spoon, about 15 minutes. Remove the custard from the heat and stir in the butter until melted. Pour the filling into the baked pie crust.
To make the meringue topping:
  1. Combine the egg whites and cream of tartar in a clean glass or metal bowl; beat with an electric mixer until foamy. Gradually add sugar, a tablespoon at a time, continuing to beat until stiff peaks form. Lift your beater or whisk straight up: the egg whites will form sharp peaks. Spread the meringue over the chocolate filling.
  2. Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, or until the tips of the meringue peaks are golden brown.

Tips And Tidbits About Slow Cooker Cabbage Rolls

Here’s a simple way to separate and soften the cabbage leaves.

Cut the core from a head of cabbage with a paring knife. Place the cored head of cabbage very carefully into a large pot of boiling water. Cover for about 1 minute. After that time the outer leaves will begin to peel away. Gently pull them off with tongs.

After the first layer let another layer loosen and pull them off too. Parboiling allows the leaves to loosen from the head for easy removal. It also makes the leaves soft and much easier for rolling!
