Loosely adapted from: Basic Biscuits
This should actually be called "The Most Delicious Biscuits You Will Ever Eat", but due to my need for recipe organization...it isn't. Growing up in the South I knew when I had a hankering for a biscuit, there was only one place to go: Bojangles. Now, if you have no idea what Bojangles is, just know one thing - No other biscuit could ever compare. Waking up this rainy Sunday morning, the biscuit hankerings were looming over my sleepy head. With the nearest Bojangles over 60 miles away (and not knowing any good biscuit places around my apartment), I did what I needed to do to soothe my uncontrollable cravings. I found this recipe online, and adapted it to make it more interesting. Unbelievable. Fluffy, flaky, buttery, delicious. What did I do next? Made an egg biscuit, of course.Ingredients:
2 c all purpose flour
1 Tbs baking powder
6 Tbs frozen butter
1 ts salt
1 Tbs garlic powder
1 Tbs Italian seasoning
1/4 c grated parmesan cheese
3/4 c milk
What to do:
1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees
2. Mix flour, baking powder, salt, garlic powder, seasoning and cheese together in a large mixing bowl
3. Using your hands, mix in the 6 individual tablespoons of butter, breaking them apart into pea-shaped bits, and mixing into the flour mixture
4. Add in the milk 1/4 c at a time, lightly mixing with a spatula until a sticky dough forms
5. Spray a baking sheet with non stick spray
6. On a clean surface, roll out (or pat out) the dough mixture into an even layer
7. Using a biscuit cutter or a glass, cut circle shapes in the dough and place each on the baking sheet
8. Bake for 15 minutes
