Garlic Cheese Biscuits

 Do you like seafood?  I don't because of that fishy taste it always seems to have.  Do you like going to Red Lobster?  I do!  Because of their yummy cheese biscuits.  Now I have a recipe for garlic cheese biscuits, so I don't have to endure fish to have them!  Here's the original recipe, and here's what I did:

Ingredients:

• 2 cups white flour
• 2 teaspoons garlic powder, plus 1 teaspoon garlic powder for topping
• 2.5 teaspoons baking powder
• ½ teaspoon baking soda
• 1 stick butter, plus 3 tablespoons butter for topping
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 cup buttermilk (or regular milk if you don’t have buttermilk, which I didn't)

Preheat oven to 450 degrees.  In a medium bowl, combine the flour, garlic powder, baking powder, and baking soda.  Cut in the butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs (I combine all this in my Kitchenaide mixer and let it do all the work).  Add the cheese.  Stir in the buttermilk until moistened.  Drop heaping tablespoonfuls about 1 inch apart onto a greased baking sheet.  Bake for 10 minutes.  While biscuits are baking, melt the 3 tablespoons of butter with the teaspoon of garlic powder.  Brush over the biscuits and bake for 4 minutes longer or until golden brown.
