Cheddar Bay Biscuits Copycat Recipe

We've all been there, or maybe its just me. You sit down at Red Lobster and out come those steamy, soft, flakey, buttery, cheesy, garlicky biscuits and you can't stop at just one or even two. Your monster size entree arrives and you can barely finish it cause of all those darn good cheddar bay biscuits you ate pre dinner. I adapted this recipe for Red Lobsters Cheddar Bay Biscuits, from a site called top secret recipes. I have to say right off the bat, no holding back here...these biscuits were delicious. Just like Red Lobster I swear it! Super Duper easy too. Simply start with a box of bisquick....

In a large mixing bowl add bisquick mix and cold butter

 

Using a fork or your hands, mix the butter into the mix. Don't over mix, there should be pea sized butter chunks throughout. That's what makes them all flakey and soft.

Then add cheddar cheese, VE seasoning for roasted garlic aioli and milk. Mix until combined with your hands. Drop on baking tray lined with the VE silicone baking mat. Bake until lightly browned.

 

After you take the biscuits from the oven melt topping butter in your microwave. Stir in VE Herb and Garlic dip mix.

Use your herb and garlic butter to spread on top of the biscuits using a brush.

I served them warm from the oven on the side of our spaghetti dinner tonight and they were just perfect.

Ingredients

2 1/2 cups Bisquick baking mix

4 tablespoons cold butter
1 heaping cup grated Cheddar cheese
3/4 cup cold whole milk
1/2 teaspoon VE seasoning for roasted garlic aioli

Brush on Top
2 tablespoons butter, melted
1 teaspoon VE herb and garlic dip mix

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 400

2. Combine Bisquick with cold butter in a medium bowl, using a fork or your hands.You don't
want to mix too much. There should be small chunks of butter in there that are about the size of peas. Add Cheddar cheese, milk, and 1/4 teaspoon VE seasoning for roasted garlic aioli. Mix by hand until combined, but don't over mix.

3. Drop approximately 1/4-cup spoonfuls of dough onto a baking sheet lined with VE silicone baking mat. Bake for 15 to 17 minutes or until the tops of the biscuits begin to turn light brown.

4. When you take the biscuits out of the oven, melt 2 tablespoons butter in a small bowl in your microwave. Stir in 1 teaspoon of VE herb and garlic dip mix. Use a brush to spread this herb and garlic butter over the tops of all the biscuits.
