Ingredients
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cut into cubes
1 cup grated cheddar cheese
1/4 cup chopped fresh chives
3/4 cup milk
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and garlic powder.
Add the cold butter cubes to the flour mixture. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, work the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Stir in the grated cheddar cheese and chopped chives until evenly distributed.
Pour in the milk and stir until the dough comes together. It should be slightly sticky but manageable.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Pat it into a rectangle about 1-inch thick.
Using a sharp knife or a biscuit cutter, cut the dough into squares or rounds.
Place the biscuits onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between each one.
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown on top.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly on a wire rack.
Enjoy.
