Recipes FAQ

Can I use a different type of cheese?

Yes, you can use any type of cheese you like. However, keep in mind that the flavor and texture of the biscuits may be different depending on the type of cheese you use.

Can I make these biscuits ahead of time?

Yes, you can make the dough ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. When you're ready to bake the biscuits, simply cut them out and bake as directed.

Do I have to use unsalted butter?

Recipe Tips

  • Make sure your butter is cold and cubed before adding it to the flour mixture.
  • Don't overwork the dough or your biscuits may turn out tough.
  • For a flakier biscuit, use a pastry blender or two forks to cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  • For a softer biscuit, use your hands to gently mix the butter and flour together until it resembles a coarse meal.
  • Brush the tops of the biscuits with melted butter before baking for a golden, buttery crust.
