3/4 cup buttermilk
2 tablespoons fresh parsley chopped
3 tablespoons melted butter
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon fresh parsley chopped
Instructions

3. Cut the cold butter into the dry mixture until crumb-like pieces form.
4. Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese.
5. Pour in the buttermilk and gently mix until the dough just comes together.
6. Scoop portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet.
7. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until golden brown on top.

Notes
Keep the butter cold for flaky and tender biscuits.
Freshly shredded cheddar melts better than packaged shredded cheese.
Do not overmix the dough or the biscuits may become dense.
