Cheddar Cheese Bisquick Biscuits

(12 servings)

  • 2 cups Bisquick or similar baking mix
  • 2/3 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 3 Tablespoons butter - melted
  • salt - to taste
This recipe was a huge disappointment. The biscuits turned out flat and they got quite hard within an hour after baking. Instead of this recipe, I suggest you try either Buttermilk Biscuits (without cheese) or Ham & Cheese Baked-In Biscuits. In this recipe's (and its submitter's) defense, the Bisquick I used was a couple months old and the leavening component may have lost its get-up-and-go, but I had success with the same box just one week earlier. While I appreciate every recipe submission, I have to tell it like it is... these biscuits sucked. (This recipe was submitted in 2010. It was tested and photographed in October 2015.)


Making Cheddar Cheese Bisquick Biscuits


How To Make Cheddar Cheese Biscuits Using Bisquick

In a large bowl, combine the baking mix, cheese and water. Mix with a fork until you get a thick doughy consistency.

Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured flat surface. Roll the dough with a rolling pin to about a 1/2-inch thickness.

Cut out individual biscuits with a biscuit cutter or the mouth of a small glass. Gather remaining scraps of dough into a ball and roll again to get another biscuit or two if possible.

Place biscuits on a baking sheets coated lightly with cooking spray. Brush to top of each biscuit with melted butter and sprinkle a dash of salt over each.

Bake in an oven preheated to 450 degrees for 8 to 10 minutes.

Allow biscuits to cool 5 minutes before serving.
