Red Lobster Cheddar Biscuits!

I was investigating online for some cool recipes and found one of my favorite things ever!

Red Lobsters Cheddar Biscuits!!!

These things are super dangerous, I eat like 5 every time I go to Red Lobster!

I decided they would be a fun Super Bowl treat, and I already had all of the ingredients!

Here's the recipe:

Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 cups Bisquick baking mix
  • 3/4 cup cold whole milk
  • 4 tablespoons cold butter (1/2 stick)
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 cup cheddar cheese (heaping), grated
  • Brush on Top
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried parsley flakes
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • pinch salt
  • Cooking Directions

    Preheat your oven to 400 degrees.

    Combine Bisquick with cold butter in a medium bowl using a pastry cutter or a large fork. You don't want to mix too thoroughly. There should be small chunks of butter in there that are about the size of peas. Add cheddar cheese, milk, and 1/4 teaspoon garlic. Mix by hand until combined, but don't over mix.

    Drop approximately 1/4-cup portions of the dough onto an ungreased cookie sheet using an ice cream scoop.

    Bake for 15 to 17 minutes or until the tops of the biscuits begin to turn light brown.

    When you take the biscuits out of the oven, melt 2 tablespoons butter is a small bowl in your microwave. Stir in 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder and the dried parsley flakes. Use a brush to spread this garlic butter over the tops of all the biscuits. Use up all of the butter. Makes one dozen biscuits.


    *** I took my biscuits out two minutes early, put the glaze on, and then let it bake for the last two minutes.

    Coca Cola Brownies!!!


    Hi everyone!!!!

    Erik and I are super snowed in right now so I decided to make one of my newest original recipes...
    Coca Cola Brownies!

    I've made these for the first time this week. They are inspi
    red from Cracker Barrel's Coca Cola Cake.

    I had to make brownies for the Pot Luck Lunch at Work on Tuesday. I bought the cheap boxed brand of brownies, so I thought I'd spice it up a little bit by replacing the water with coca cola.
    I just used the exact same amount of Coke as the recipe called for water.

    I got RAVE reviews! Everyone at school kept talking about how great they were. I decided I would make them for my lovely husband tonight.

    The recipe called for 1/4 cup of water, so this time I decided to put 1/2 cup of Coke. IT WAS WONDERFUL!!!
