Homemade Honey Butter Cheddar Biscuits.

The very best Homemade Honey Butter Cheddar Biscuits! These easy homemade biscuits are extra special. They’re made with milk, sharp cheddar cheese, garlic, and salted butter. Then served warm with honey garlic butter spooned over each roll and fresh basil or parsley on top. These biscuits are super easy to make and so delicious!

I’ve been wanting to make homemade cheddar biscuits for the longest time. Although I know they serve cheddar biscuits at multiple restaurant chains, I’ve only had them homemade and loved them each time.

My Nonnie used to make her own recipe, which I remember being so yummy. She’d always make biscuits anytime she was serving a steak and potatoes dinner. Fun fact: Nonnie was the girl who bought the Bob Evens microwave mashed potatoes, and she had no shame. She passed those mashers off as her own, and we all loved them.

She was such a special woman!

Anyway, I’ve had this recipe on my to-make list for forever, it seems. I knew that sharing it now, right around Easter, could be the perfect time.

I think we’re all looking for great, simple bread recipes to serve for either brunch or dinner. And you can never go wrong with a really good biscuit!

Here are the details

Step 1: mix the dough

First, toss the stick of butter in the freezer and get it really cold.

Now, mix the flour, baking powder, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt. Grab the butter from the freezer. Make sure it’s cold. I would freeze it for 5-10 minutes before using it. Then, shred it on a box grater, just as you would cheese. I’ve been using this little trick for years, and it never fails. It also saves us from dirtying up that food processor.

Mix the shredded butter and sharp cheddar cheese into the flour. Add the milk and honey and mix until just combined.

Step 2: roll the biscuits out

Now dump the dough out onto a counter with flour. Pat the dough into a rectangle, then fold the side inward, like a letter. Press the dough back into a rectangle and repeat the folding.

This is the secret to creating lots of flaky layers in your biscuits.

Step 3: cut the biscuits

First, use a circle cookie or biscuit cutter to cut out your biscuits. I like to use a 3-inch biscuit cutter.

Arrange the biscuits in a cast-iron skillet. The skillet creates the perfect biscuit with a crisp, buttery bottom.

Brush the tops with milk.

Step 4: bake + make the honey butter

Bake the biscuits until golden. They will smell delicious.

While the biscuits are baking, mix the last of the butter with garlic powder and honey. Melt this on the stove, then add either fresh basil or parsley.

Step 5: serve warm

Spoon the warm honey garlic butter over each roll, then sprinkle with sea salt.

Lastly, a sprinkle of sea salt makes every bite of these buttery, flaky cheddar biscuits just that much better.

These are delicious as a brunch side, an appetizer, or a dinner roll. You can certainly never go wrong with a great biscuit!
