Red Lobster Biscuits - Copycat Recipe

Do you love those Red Lobster garlic butter biscuits? Well, you can make your own with this copycat recipe and I think they are even better.

We use baking mix (Bisquick) in this recipe but you can make the biscuits from scratch if you want (recipe below). If you make your own be sure to add the confectioner's sugar, parsley and shredded cheese to your biscuit dough.

Ingredients

* 2 1/4 cups baking mix (Bisquick)
* 3 tablespoons confectioner's sugar
* 8 ounces (about 1 cup) shredded cheddar cheese
* cold milk as needed per Bisquick package instructions (about 2/3 cup)
* 1 stick (8 tablespoons) butter or margarine
* 1 teaspoon minced garlic
* 1/4 cup minced fresh parsley (use dried parsley if you have to)

Directions

1. Pre heat the oven to 400 degrees F.

2. Make the biscuit dough per baking mix instructions or use our recipe below to make from scratch.

3. Add the confectioner's sugar, parsley and shredded cheese to the dough and mix well.

4. If using stick butter, cut into 4 or 5 chunks. Place the butter and garlic in a baking dish or pan and put in oven to melt butter. Watch closely. You want the butter melted, not cooked.

5. Place melted butter/garlic mix on counter top and using two spoons (or your hands) form balls of biscuit dough about 2-3 inches in diameter. Place the dough balls in the melted butter mix and roll to cover all sides. Place coated balls on a dry (no oil or spray) cookie sheet.

6. Place biscuits in pre heated oven. Check the biscuits after 7-8 minutes of baking. When the bottoms of the biscuits are golden brown, turn oven to broiler setting. Leave oven door open and watch biscuits until tops are golden brown. Do not walk away with broiler on. The biscuits will burn quickly.

7. Drizzle any remaining butter/garlic mix over top of hot biscuits. Serve immediately.

Makes 7-9 biscuits

TIPS:
1. Line the cookie sheet with parchment paper before placing biscuit dough on the sheet (helps keep bottoms from burning).
