These are pretty goood. I would recommend turning the heat on the oven down to 350 degrees after you put the biscuits in, because my first batch was perfect on the top and burnt on the bottom.

These biscuits are fantastic! This will be the recipe I use from now on. Thank you! I substituted parmesan cheese for the cheddar and added 2 tsp dried parsley and 1 tsp dried thyme. I also added a dot of butter on top each biscuit before baking.

It may have been something I did wrong with the recipe but I did not care for these.

Very good cheddar biscuits! The only change I made was to use shortening rather than butter or margarine, because it gives biscuits that light, flaky texture that makes them great, which these were!

I've been meaning to make some biscuits from scratch and I came across this recipe. I omitted the cayenne, and they turned out wonderfully. I added a little more cheddar then what was written, and I think I'll actually add more next time as well. Thanks for sharing :)

I made these for a Sunday dinner. They came out OK but I can't rave about them like so many have. Since flours vary with moisture I believe I could have added a full cup of buttermilk. They came out a bit dry but they were not heavy. Flavor was good but I've made better with a box mix. As I said just OK.

Wow, so many things went wrong, and they were still a success. I didn't have enough butter, so I supplemented with the last little bit of shortening I had and a little spreadable margarine. Had to estimate the amounts because I'm in Ireland, and butter here doesn't come in sticks marked with tablespoon and cup measurements. I also estimated the buttermilk and didn't flour my hands properly when kneading so ended up a bit of a sticky mess. My biscuits did not rise really, but they were still light, fluffy, and the taste was lovely. This was my first time baking biscuits, but I've had loads of experience eating them, and I enjoyed these, as did my Irish boyfriend who accidentally sabotaged my first attempt by closing down this website so I couldn't refer to the recipe anymore. I forgave him. Hopefully my handling and my estimations will improve with experience.

Wow! Great buscuits! I did add some garlic salt to this, but it was so easy to make. My husband and kids ask for this over and over. I didn't even roll them out and cut them. I just formed little patties and put them on a pan. Perfect buscuits every time!

easy to make! I added two tablespoons of minced garlic, giving it that garlic and cheese bread taste. Thanks for the great recipe!

Very good and easy to make. Not as bland as others.

These are awesome we used a little bit of italian seasoning in them and I have never made a better biscuit ever, that says a lot because Im not usually much of a southern cook and I dont do biscuits...they turned out perfect and I will keep this recipe as my go to for biscuits :)

delicious! i added some pepper jack cheese to the mix (another 1/4 cup to the called for cheddar cheese) and they were excellent...

These biscuits are very light and flavorful, I used one cup Cabot Pepperjack and added 3 cloves minced garlic. The flavor was excellent. I will make this my standard biscuit recipe

Mine did not turn out light and flaky like the picture. They barely rose at all! They were very dense and flour tasting. If they had fluffed up they might have been good. I'll give it another try, but for now all I can give it is 2 stars.

My husband is a self-proclaimed "picky buttermilk biscuit eater" and claimed these to be the best he ever has eaten! The kids absolutely loved them,too!

I can't believe I made these! They are PERFECT. I used chili powder instead of the cayenne. SO good. I found I needed the full 18 minutes of baking. What a delicious addition to the cabbage soup I made tonight!
