Best Dinner Biscuits
These easy to make cheddar garlic biscuits are a copycat of everyone's favorite restaurant biscuit! Using a homemade Bisquick mix these biscuits are ready to enjoy in just 20 minutes.
It's time friends! I have wanted to share this delicious recipe for Garlic Cheddar Biscuits with you for awhile now, but I wanted to make sure it was perfect and completely from scratch!
If you have never had a Red Lobster "Cheddar Bay Biscuit" then you won't be able to compare, and if you have let me tell you, THESE ARE THE SAME THING and so so sooooo yummy! Now when I say "from scratch" I mean it guys (no store bought mixes here!) and I am even going to share with you how to make your own "Bisquick" to have on hand all the time so you can make these and many other goodies whenever you want them!
I chose to make my biscuits a little smaller than you would find in the restaurant (I like more to go around!) but feel free to make em larger if you want!
You also want to make sure you brush them with the garlic butter when you are ready to serve, otherwise it will make them soggy. I make the biscuits up to a day in advance and just quickly heat them before they hit the table, and you would never know they weren't just pulled from the oven.

Garlic Cheddar Biscuits
Fluffy biscuits loaded with garlic and cheddar - perfect to go with a bowl of stew!
Ingredients
- 2.5 c Homemade Biscuik Mix
- ¼ c Butter, cold and cubed
- ¾ Milk, I use 1%, use what you have on hand!
- 1 c grated Cheddar Cheese
- ½ teaspoon Garlic Powder
Butter Topping
- 2 tablespoon Butter
- ½ teaspoon Garlic Powder
- ½ teaspoon dried Parsley
- ⅛ teaspoon Kosher Salt, "pinch"
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 F
- Using a stand mixer (or just your hands if you don't have one) combine the Bisquick mix with the cold butter and mix for about 30 seconds. You want the butter to still be noticeable, about the size of small peas.
- Add the cheese, milk and garlic powder and mix until combined (do not overmix it). Remove from bowl and gently mix with your hands for about 15 seconds.
- Drop onto cookie sheet using a teaspoon or cookie scoop (again you can make them larger if you prefer)
- Bake for 12-14 minutes, until the tops are slightly golden
Butter Topping
- Melt butter with garlic powder in microwave, then add in parsley and salt. Using a pastry brush gently cover each biscuit with a generous amount of the butter topping!
- Serve and enjoy
Notes
Make sure your ingredients are cold (butter, milk, cheese) it helps trust me! Also, you can use margarine (the biscuits will spread a little bit more) just make sure to measure it ahead of time and stick it in the freezer to get cold (about 20 minutes).

You are welcome Shelbi, I hope you give them another try!! They are so tasty!
These look freaking heavenly!
They tasted JUST as good as they look 😛
These are the main reason why I got to Red Lobster!! I need to try this recipe asap!
Yes!!!! I was the same, I used to ask for extra biscuits before leaving and wrap them up to go 🙂 Now I just make them when I want them!
Oh I love Red Lobster's cheddar biscuits. I'll have to pin this recipe.
I used to make these all the time! I had the recipe from a copycat cook book that I had gotten from QVC years ago. This is the best recipe, and they taste just like the ones from Red Lobster!
They are so delish! We make them so often I could do them in my sleep 😀
wow I was wondering how to make those since this baked yummy treats are one of the reasons why I go to Red Lobster. So good and looks fairly easy to make. Thanks!
You're welcome Adriana, Enjoy!
You had me at garlic, I must admit 😉 love the recipe, will surely try it soon! 🙂 And photos are great too!
Thanks so much Mari, we eat with our eyes first right 🙂
I have tasted the biscuits and it's difficult to stop eating them. The cheese inside is so good but my favorite it the garlicky taste you baste them with.
I agree, you can't have just one ha!! I always add a little extra of the garlic butter baste to it as I too love the flavors!!
I love biscuits - in fact I can get addicted!! I usually make sour cream but I love the idea of cheddar - definitely going to try this soon.
Oooo I need to try a sour cream version!! I love the cheddar ones but am always up to trying others as well!
Who doesn't love these biscuits? Only people who've never had them. I've tried several times to copy the recipe at home and always fall short. I'll be trying your recipe - they look perfect!
I hope you love them as much as I do! And YES once you try it how can you not love it?! ha!
I am all about homemade biscuits. Love that you have used a homemade biscuit recipe too. I will be printing and pinning...you can never go wrong with great copy cat recipes.
Thanks so much Gloria!!! We always have a mason jar full of the homemade mix so we can whip these up when we feel like them!! Especially with these cooler days ahead they go perfectly with a rich and hearty stew.
I actually made a decent copycat version that were beer bread muffins. They were sooo good. These look a bit lighter than mine though!
Oh yum, those sound just as good!!!! Anything with beer and cheese is a winner 😉
I like red lobster biscuits, your recipe sounds perfect and agree with you if we can make it better one at home that is always great.
Thanks Swathi!!! Who doesn't love a good Cheddar and Garlic biscuit right!!
So there's nothing wrong if I just make these and eat them all myself is there?! These look yummy. Love this recipe.
ha no judgement here!!! I can easily eat 3 at a time!
