Hello! Happy 3rd of October! (On Wednesday’s we wear pink) Ya’ll, I can’t even with how fast this year has gone by. I’m super stoked though because the next few months are going to be super awesome! I love this time of year. You know what else I love? Cheddar & Chive buttermilk biscuits. Yep. You heard it here first.
These delicious bites of heaven are a take on a biscuit recipe I found while perusing Chrissy Teigen’s new cookbook “Cravings, Hungry for More” (which you can only find at Target btw…) and I knew I just needed to give these babies a try!
I love all the soft fluffy layers, and you could definitely make these biscuits twice and thick and they would be even denser. Yasss. And surprisingly, these taste like those Red Lobster Rolls that everyone raves about, so if you like those — you’ll love these!
Now, I normally make regular buttermilk biscuits on the weekends, but since I decided to jazz things up with these I think I might start making them on a regular basis for dinner and the like! I love them with my roasted corn & tomatillo chowder — talk about complementary — and I think they would go with so many other things!
They also keep surprisingly well in the fridge, which is all the better because I can make a batch on the weekend and them have them all. week. long.
So get in your kitchen and make something (these biscuits?) delicious!
Happy Baking!
