Chive & Cheddar Drop Biscuits

Drop biscuits are so simple to make and a great recipe for your child to help you with. Have your child use safety scissors to snip the chives (adult assistance may be required) and let them get messy during step #3 when they mix the batter with their hands! Finally, they can top each biscuit with the shredded cheese.

Chive & Cheddar Drop Biscuits

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
  
• 1 teaspoon fine salt
  
• 1-2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
  
• 1 stick cold unsalted butter, cut into small cubes
  
• 3/4 cup whole milk or milk of choice
  
• 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or grease the baking sheet.
   
2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and chopped chives.
   
3. Add the cold butter to the dry ingredients and use your fingers to rub the butter into the flour until it resembles a coarse meal.
   
4. Add the milk and stir with a fork until the mixture just comes together into a fairly sticky dough.
   
5. Use a 1/4 cup measuring cup to drop balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet.
   
6. Sprinkle some shredded cheddar cheese on the top of each biscuit.
   
7. Bake biscuits until golden brown, about 18-20 minutes.
