1/4 tsp garlic salt
6 Tbsp cold butter, cut in small cubes
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
3/4 cup buttermilk, ice cold
Topping:
3 tablespoons melted butter
1/2 teaspoon dried parsley
rounded 1/4 teaspoon garlic salt

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. In a large bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt. Use a pastry blender or 2 knives used scissor fashion to cut in the butter until small pea-sized crumbs form.

Step 2

Add the cheese and toss until coated with flour. Add the buttermilk and stir until just combined - don't overmix. Drop by 1/4 cup fulls onto the baking sheet about 2 inches apart. Bake 14 - 16 minutes until golden around the edges. Meanwhile, in a small bowl combine melted butter with parsley and garlic salt.

Remove the biscuits from the oven and brush butter generously over the tops while hot. Best served warm.
