Joshua fixed these to go with our Pollo con Piña the other night...they were delicious.
I think what really makes them great is using Homemade Bisquick :)
2 c. bisquick
¼ c. margarine or butter, melted
2/3 c. milk
¼ t. garlic powder
½ c. shredded cheddar cheese
· Heat oven to 450. Mix baking mix, milk and cheese until soft dough forms; beat 30 seconds.
· Drop dough by 10 to 12 spoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheet.
· Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until golden brown. Mix melted oleo & garlic powder; brush over warm biscuits before removing from cookie sheet. Serve warm.
**I sometimes add a little garlic powder to the bisquick as I mix in the milk. These taste a lot like the biscuits at Red Lobster. They go great with spaghetti. Joshua’s always turn out better than mine!
Homemade Bisquick Mix
Makes 7 cups
3 cups white flour
3 cups whole wheat flour
3 Tbsp baking powder
1 Tbsp salt
1 cup shortening
1. Whisk flour together in a large bowl with baking powder and salt until well blended.
2. Cut in shortening with a pastry blender until mixture resembles fine crumbs.
3. Store mixture in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 months.
4. Use whenever your recipe calls for BISQUICK.
**the original recipe that I found on the Internet had you sift the dry ingredients together three times…using a wire whisk is much easier and gives the same results. It also called for 6 cups of white flour, but we like doing half whole wheat and half white flour.
