*These are NOT Red Lobster cheese biscuits....nor as good. However, they are okay. Taste for yourself. I would rather make Red Lobster cheese biscuits (recipe on back of Bisquick box).

I like to add dried parsley and garlic and they are just like Red Lobster's! This is a huge hit in our house!!

I followed the recipe exactly and it wasn't turning out right. Had to make some adjustments along the way like adding more milk. I did use a whole wheat white flour and that could have been the issue. Very tasty though. Excellent the next day too. Could easily have these without the cream cheese topping. Altogether though, a very nice homemade biscuit.
