Tips for Perfect Cheesy Biscuits Every Time

I’ve learned a few tricks over the years that make these biscuits even better. Here are some handy tips to keep in mind:

• Keep your butter cold - this helps create those lovely flaky layers.

• Don’t overmix the dough - mix just until it comes together to keep the texture light.

• Use sharp cheddar - it adds a punch of flavour that mild cheese just can’t match.

• Try adding herbs - a sprinkle of chives, thyme, or rosemary can add a fresh twist.

• Serve warm - biscuits are best enjoyed straight from the oven, but if you need to reheat, pop them in a warm oven for a few minutes.

  
  

These little pointers make a big difference and will have you baking like a pro in no time.

Fun Ways to Enjoy Your Cheesy Biscuits

Once you’ve mastered the basic recipe, the fun really begins! Here are some ideas to jazz up your cheesy biscuits and make them even more exciting:

• Cheese and ham - slice the biscuits in half and fill with ham and a slice of cheese for a quick snack.

• Shape them! - choose a cutter and make dinosaurs, flowers, hearts, whatever is your favourite.

• Dipping delight - serve with soups, stews, or even a spicy tomato dip.

• Party bites - cut biscuits into smaller pieces and serve with a variety of dips for a crowd-pleasing platter.

  
  

The possibilities are endless, and these biscuits are sure to be a hit wherever you take them.
