Cheddar-Garlic Biscuits

Do you ever find yourself frequenting a certain chain seafood restaurant just to partake in their delicious biscuits? The folks at Betty Crocker saved the day with their simple, inexpensive biscuit recipe, that mimics the flavors of their infamous counterpart, without having to tolerate the somewhat mediocre seafood afterwards.

2 cups baking mix (Biquick)
2/3 cup milk
½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
2 T. butter
¼ tsp. garlic powder, divided

Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
In a large bowl, stir together baking mix, milk, cheese, and 1/8 tsp. garlic powder until soft dough forms. Drop by the spoonful onto a very lightly greased baking sheet. Bake 8-10 minutes, until golden brown.
In a small, microwave-safe bowl, melt butter and remaining garlic powder in microwave for 30 seconds. Brush over biscuits before serving.
