 Categories: Breads, Cheese, Dairy, Herbs
      Yield: 12 Biscuits
 
      3 c  Biscuit/baking mix
    3/4 c  Sharp Cheddar cheese;
           - shredded
      1 ts Garlic powder
      1 ts Ranch dressing mix
      1 c  Buttermilk

MMMMM--------------------BUTTER-HERB TOPPING-------------------------
    1/4 c  Butter; melted
      1 tb Chives; minced
      1 ts Garlic powder
    1/2 ts Ranch salad dressing mix
    1/4 ts Ground black pepper
    1/4 ts Salt
 
  MIX BISCUIT INGREDIENTS: In a large mixing bowl, combine
  the biscuit/baking mix, shredded cheddar cheese, garlic
  powder, ranch powder, and buttermilk. Stir to combine
  until all ingredients are wet and a shaggy dough forms.
  Be careful not to overmix.
  
  DROP THE BISCUITS ONTO A BAKING SHEET: scooping heaping
  spoonfuls of cheddar bay biscuit dough onto lined baking
  sheet.
  
  Set oven @ 450°F/232°C. Then, drop heaping spoonfuls of
  biscuit dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Leave
  about 2" between the biscuits. You should get 8 to
  12 biscuits from this recipe, depending on the size of
  your spoonfuls.
  
  Place the biscuits into oven and bake for 10 minutes, or
  until the biscuits are just starting to turn golden.
  Remove promptly.
  
  BASTE WITH BUTTER: While the biscuits bake, melt the
  butter in the microwave; 30-45 seconds at 50% power. Add
  the chives, garlic powder, ranch seasoning, salt, and
  pepper and stir to combine.
  
  Then, while the biscuits are still warm from the oven,
  baste each biscuit generously with the melted herb
  butter. Serve warm.
  
  Store biscuits in an airtight container at room
  temperature for up to 3 days. To reheat, place the
  biscuits on a lined baking sheet and warm in a heated
  oven for 5 minutes. Brush with fresh herb butter, if
  desired.
  
  Feel free to customize this biscuit recipe with a
  teaspoon or two of your favorite herbs and spices. Here
  are just a few of our recommended variations.
  
  Cayenne pepper: give a subtle kick to your biscuits
  
  Onion powder: add a sharp onion flavor that complements
  the chives
  
  Parsley: provides a fresh, herb flavor and aroma
  
  Basil: give your biscuits some Italian flair with fresh
  or dried basil
  
  Thyme: we love how sharp, peppery thyme pairs with the
  cheddar in these biscuits
  
  Rosemary: add a woodsy, earthy aroma and taste to
  Cheddar Bay Biscuits
  
  Parmesan cheese: use in place of cheddar or add for some
  extra cheesy goodness
  
  Pepper jack cheese: transform these biscuits into a
  Southwest delight, perfect to serve with chili or
  chicken tortilla soup
