CHEDDAR CHEESE BISCUITS LIKE RUBY TUESDAY'S

Cheddar Cheese Biscuits Like Ruby Tuesday's image

This is a scratch recipe, adapted from Food and Wine, that is a dead ringer for the ones I enjoy at Ruby Tuesday's. I like it because it uses plain flour instead of Bisquick.

Time 30m

Yield 12-18 biscuits, 12-18 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/3 cup butter, cold, cut into chunks
2 tablespoons odorless vegetable oil or 2 tablespoons any flavorless odorless vegetable oil
1 cup grated sharp cheddar cheese or 6 -7 ounces sharp cheddar cheese
1/2-2/3 cup milk
3 tablespoons butter
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon dried parsley flakes or 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, finely chopped

Steps:

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt and garlic powder.
Add the cubed butter. Using a pastry cutter or a fork, cut butter into flour until it is coarse, pea-sized.
Add oil, grated cheddar cheese and the milk. Stir till well combined and holds together.
Make sure to keep adding milk a bit at a time, just until the dough is moistened and you can no longer see any raw flour.
Drop approximately 1/4 cup portions of the dough onto an un-greased cookie sheet or a using an ice cream scoop or large spoon.
Bake for 15-17 minutes in a preheated oven at 400 degrees.
While biscuits are baking, melt 3 tablespoons butter is a small bowl with 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder and the parsley.
When biscuits come out of the oven, use a brush to spread this garlic butter over the tops of all the biscuits. Do this a few times - it's fun to watch all the butter getting absorbed into the biscuit! Use up all of the butter. Serve warm.

Tips:

Use a variety of cheeses. A blend of cheddar, Monterey Jack, and queso Oaxaca will give your quesadillas a gooey, flavorful filling.
Don't overfill your quesadillas. Too much filling will make them difficult to fold and cook evenly.
Cook your quesadillas over medium heat. This will help them cook evenly without burning the tortillas.
Serve your quesadillas with your favorite toppings. Sour cream, salsa, guacamole, and pico de gallo are all great options.
