Place your butter and buttermilk in the freezer for 20 minutes. This step is optional but really helps to ensure the structure of the biscuit is in tact when baked.
113 g cold butter (1 stick), 1 cup buttermilk
Into a mixing bowl add flour, baking powder, garlic powder, salt, and sugar. Mix well.
250 g AP flour, 1 tbsp baking powder, ½ tbsp garlic powder, ½ tbsp salt, ½ tbsp sugar
Grate in your butter, add cheese. Mix well.
113 g cold butter (1 stick), ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
Slowly drizzle in your buttermilk and then mix only until you can no longer see any more dry flour.
1 cup buttermilk
Using a spoon or ice cream scooper, form your biscuits. I like to make compact balls using an ice cream scooper. And this recipe will make about 10 biscuits.
Brush on some more buttermilk on each biscuit and place into the oven at 420F for 15-18 minutes. They should be golden brown.
While the biscuits are baking, mix together butter, honey, and salt in a saucepan and heat until melted.
½ cup honey, ½ cup butter, 1 tsp salt
Brush your biscuits with the honey butter mixture and enjoy.
